What's Kurylenko and Oldman doing in such a poorly scripted and directed movie?
Watch out for:
1. Writers' limited vocabulary is confined to the F word and screaming fits
2. A bunch of henchmen strolling around in circles in a parking structure
3. The heroine, ex-Bond girl is the female version of John McClane.
4. You'll be eager to walk out of the cinema midway through the movie and certainly don't care if the good guys slice or die.
Don't waste your time and money on this movie.

I felt like I was doing my own MST3K commentary during the whole film.
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.
Trailers are very deceptive, I thought this looked a decent thriller but it turned out to be a low budget dud.
I'm a fan of Gary Oldman his last two films have been low budget, whats happened to his career ? Oscar winner to this dross.
Olga Kurylenko carries this film to a certain degree as a female John McLean.
Watch this after a few pints if you're lucky you will forget it next day.
I have no idea how they persuaded Olga Kurylenko and Gary Oldman to star in such a waste of time.
Interminable motorcycle shots with wrong engine sounds, like someone who's never heard a motorcycle in their life was responsible for the sound effects.
Fighting scenes are from the 80's movies and there's a bunch of scenes with (really useless and misplaced) gore.
Boring all the way to Mars, don't waste your life watching it.
I gave it a two instead of a one because of Kurylenko and Oldman, although i can't imagine why they did it.
