Am i the only one who thinks........Average?

Absolutely Fantastic

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

If you take this film for the over the top,action filled,shameless entertainment it is,you'll probably like it. It is clear reading other reviews that some took offense by this,i say they probably took it all too seriously and became offended my Travolta's no messing character. Okay,this guy working for the CIA wants a promotion,so to feel more important. He gets it and soon realizes his partner on a mission he's learning more about on the way,is a loose cannon and will probably offend a lot of people with his seemingly uncaring attitude. What starts out looking like a major drugs bust,soon becomes more about terrorism. We start learing about who the enemy really is and what their ultimate goal is,so to hear other reviews say this has no plot makes me question their intellect,it clearly has a storyline,if you didn't like it,fine,but get real. I took this as great,ridiculously over the top action,with some nice surprises and plenty enough action to fill hour and half with,so i enjoyed for what it was,entertainment. I thought Travaolta was on top form,regardless of whether his character was a likable one or not. It soon become obvious,via the fighting scenes,that it cannot be taken seriously,though the end gets a little more serious. It had me gripped and left me entertained,no complaints here. Brilliant film.

Fabulous film - Travolta is outstanding as is Rhys Myers! Loads of twists and turns, car chases and explosions.Every now and then you need a film that is just excitement and entertainment without the need to think too much and this fits the bill perfectly. Added to that it has been very well executed unlike many films of this genre with a great performance by John Travolta playing it completely over the top and stealing the film. Some reviewers have compared it to the 'Die hard' series but I thought it was more like 'Transporter'. This isn't the sort of film for viewers who like to find some depth of meaning but is perfect for a boy's night in when the football's finished, enjoy.

...whenever he is out of control and in charge of his world, it's hard not to like him. He's smug, violent loud and American in a world that despises all of that to which we embrace. I don't think snobs would enjoy this movie, as it boils down all your most ridiculous fears about terrorism, drugs, and gangs into the simplest form of targets. It's not for the intellectual, it's for venting. And if you approach it with that idea of fun, you can go along with the outrageous set up.I absolutely had fun watching this film. Pierre Morel is very capable of stunt coordination without it just being non-sensical. Everything is amp'd up but plausible. He balances it out with a warm look at Paris. And it's idiosyncratic characters. He stretches the love of its people and also the things that drive him nuts (bureaucracy).Not so when Travolta comes in like a bull and takes charge. It's a cartoon to be sure.

James Reece (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) is an aide to the U.S. Ambassador in Paris. He does assignments for the CIA and hopes to get into special ops. After planting a bug in a french minister's office, he's given another task to pick up Charlie Wax (John Travolta) at the airport. He has to run out on a special dinner with his girlfriend Caroline (Kasia Smutniak). Charlie is a manic strange angry loud-mouthed agent. He takes James on a wide ride starting with shooting up a Chinese restaurant.I really don't like John Travolta's overacting cartoon character. It's that simple and I don't really like JRM's character either. This is too ridiculous in a bad way. It made me roll my eyes once too often. This is trying to be that stylish action movie but it really doesn't achieve anything other than a lot of gunplay. And JRM carrying around that vase just looks stupid.
