To be perfectly honest, I agree with you. I don't actually love the movie for its action, there are two things that make the movie for me.

The first is the acting. Not the greatest, and not the best from everyone involved, but that black guy in it (LOL, it's not a great thing that I can't remember his name) had some pretty good energy, even if the story kind of lost me. Bale just always get me, I don't know what it is.

It may seem a bit unjustified worshiping a movie because of one scene, but the second thing is the scene where Bale has just come off his emotion-suppressants, and he picks up the puppy trying to escape. I don't know, but this is just a great scene to me, and it made me love and respect this movie.
