7/10
Worth watching, but could be better...
6 May 2013
This film had so much potential, yet was wasted in my opinion. The film could have been longer; filmed in more global locations and gone deeper into the plot's story, before the end of it kicked in.

I was a little disappointed with Cusack, he could have put more into his performance. He needed to be more serious and basically "Hard." Similar to the performance by Gerard Butler, in law abiding citizen.

Would have been nice to see more believable fighting moves. For someone who supposedly had top training the fights lacked creditability. The gun scenes too were not that believable.

I found the plot could have been better than bourne, if the creator had the guts/financial backing to develop it.

Malin Akerman was the star of the show in my opinion as was Liam Cunningham's role. I found both to be very convincing.

All in all though it was a good film. Just it was a shame it was not made better. For it had the makings of a real blockbuster in-terms of plot and action possibilities.
