Taffin - Movie Review

  • 01 November 2005

Rating: 2.5 out of 5

Years before becoming Bond, Pierce Brosnan got the chance to play a roguish Brit hero as the title character in Taffin, an Irish debt collector hired to stop Evil Corporate Empire from building a chemical plant in a sleepy waterfront village. Do the ends justify the means Taffin goes through? If you can stay awake, you may just find out! Disappointing due to a confusing and often boring storyline, Brosnan provides enough bright moments to make the movie bearable, though hardly memorable.
