Technique over storytelling
I'll start by saying that I loved The villianess by the same director and that enjoyed the long takes it had. Carter, however, is one long take that pretend to be a movie because everything serves to keep the long take, and though it has its merits (like the flashbacks) everything else suffers, because this movie is only about make a long take. The story and the action suffer because of it and both end up being confusing and tiresome.
I wanted to watch a good action movie but I didn't find it though it could've been awesome and where I don't care about the characters or their story.
The acting is not bad though sometimes the actor's line of vision is weird (probably because of whatever they do to mask the cuts between the scenes so that it looks like one take).
Oh, it was nice to see Mike Colter even if his part was short.
