This crime drama ends up being far less than the sum of its parts. And there's a surprisingly large number of parts played by the star studded cast. Some performances work better than others. Standouts include Woody Harrelson, Chiwetel Ejiofer, Anthony Mackie, and a subtly frightening Clifton Collins, Jr. Kate Winslet employs an absurd accent as a Russian mob boss while Casey Affleck looks lost as usual. John Hillcoat does have an eye for establishing a grimy and gritty atmosphere for his movies which are often crime oriented. Still, style and a who's-who of actors being involved doesn't stop Triple 9 from becoming a muddled and overly dreary viewing experience.
