Costner 'goes' all Liam Neeson, old guy kicking ass in this Luc Besson penned bollocks. Costner is an international spy/hitman, who wants to retire to spend time with his estranged Wife and young daughter but he is dragged back into the industry on the promise of a life changing wonder drug.

| The movies one redeeming asset. |
The action when it happens is thick and fast, bloody with plenty of cartoon violence, but the film is dragged down by nauseating sentiment, Costner teaching his Kid to ride a bike, fly a kite whatever. The movie is set in France and director, the idiotic Mcg, hammers this home by showing backdrops of the Eiffel Tower.....every 5 minutes during the movie. Amber Heard is purely in it for eye candy, each new more revealing outfit complemented by more red lipstick, McG even throws in some misogyny with a P.O.V shot almost up Ms Heards leather dress!!!
Loud, brash, dopey nonsense.
