The Courier

Terrible editing, Horrible soundtrack, cardboard characters. The whole movie feels like we are following a film crew around while the actors rehearse their lines. Gary Oldman will apparently take any job he can get. He does wear an eye-patch though...good call by the wardrobe department; they really earned their keep.

Unfortunately, this tries very hard (but fails) to be a TRANSPORTER. Don't get me wrong.I love Olga Kurlyenko and Gary Oldman but the storyline is paperthin. Is it me but does anybody notice that almost ALL movies tend to have at least ONE English character. In this movie, the witness' job is merely to being as obnoxious as possible. Expletives abound but after a while it does get to be kind of tedious. I can only recall one scene - obviously created for the comedic effect but it just fell flat (pardon the pun). There is absolutely no chemistry between Olga and the witness and poor Gary Oldman. What dragged him to do this movie? He is a much-talented actor. The storyline - just because ONE witness saw him kill another baddie - his whole cartel comes crumbling down? Olga and Gary's talents wasted.

Kurylenko and Shah held the film together, from all the no talent European contract killers in the film. Their chemistry was spot on. But what's the deal with Oldman lately? He's becoming the next Nick Cage by taking all these shoddy roles. Mulroney's role came alive in the very last scene....OK, but again, shoddy role. Anyway, good action, but story very meh. Good for a one time watch.

Painful to watch, cardboard acting, stupid story, cant believe Oldman and Kurylenko took part in this.

Bad acting, bad dialogue, stupid action scenes. It's definitely 4 of 10. A lot of irrelevant drama.
