This is a fine example of a film that tries hard to swim to the shore of goodness but ultimately drowns in the sea of cliches. It's not necessarily awful it just doesn't work all that well. The camerawork is rather bland and the editing is a little messy, Kevin Costner seems like he's channeling his inner Liam Nielsen and though the strong focus on the Father/Daughter relationship is commendable it's too ridden with cliches like the rest of the film for it to work fully. Still Amber Heard is hot, the film isn't boring and there are a few fun moments here and there (you can definitely tell it was written by Luc Besson).
Overall it's ok-ish and at least it tried.
