No, actually, Gary Oldman is fucking miserable in this movie. Inasmuch as Gary Oldman is one of the greatest actors of all time, we can safely assume that this movie was directed by a talentless fuck.
This was an amazing fucking movie. I know I say that about a lot of movies, but this really was an amazing fucking movie. The SWAT team scene had me checking the ceilings of every entrance corridor for months after.
