There's an old adage specific to Engineers that, often is quoted.... "Its never wise, to hire only Engineers, and overlook hiring of a project manager, for the rudimentary reason that, the Engineer's collective DNA, is often programmed by their very nature, to keep trying to improve the widget, instead of getting it to market.
Likewise, this movie 'The Pledge', was supposedly a labor of love, between Director Sean Penn & Lead Actor Jack Nicholson, but apparently they forgot the film's limited budget. At the very beginning of the film's -credits, it became very noticeable that, A+ Actor names, continued to softly-bleed across the screen.
And, this is where a lot of season movie-goers, felt deceived & cheated, because virtually all the A+ listed actors, ended up having mere Cameo roles, while Jack Nicholson carried at least 80% of the entire movie!
Worth Watching, but watch this film, w knowledge that its purposefully very slow paced, and at the end of the day, has the propensity to leave viewers more frustrated, than entertained.
