Review: "The Instigators": Damon and (Casey) Affleck falter
Description
With mediocre results, Matt Damon and Casey Affleck play ludicrous heist movie clichés that the film attempts to please the viewer with. As the comic relief, Affleck—who also co-wrote the screenplay—performs well in the assigned role in The Instigators on Myflixer. Damon portrays a more somber role, but strangely for such a gifted actor, we never had a strong connection with him. Though it's far from flawless, it does have some charm, particularly thanks to the supporting cast members Paul Walter Hauser, Ron Perlman, Michael Stuhlbarg, Hong Chau, and Alfred Molina, who we wish we had more of on screen time. Liman, who has a reputation for producing consistently entertaining action films like The Bourne Identity, Edge of Tomorrow, and the most recent Road House.
