I think Aaron Eckhart is good. I know he doesn't do great films but I don't think he gets enough credit for the films he does do.
This film however was marred by bad dialogue. I mean cliche riff to cliche riff...I'm surprised they didn't throw an, "I'll be back" in there just to complete the insane laziness that this film was written with.
Then the on screen chemistry between Eckhart and Nina Dobrev was putrid. In one scene she literally giggled like a school girl at one of Eckhart's cheese ball lines...but yet they both are professional assassins/spies. Yawn.
The story itself wasn't terrible...if you strip some of those cheese ball lines out.
Oh and brick laying....it literally played no role in movie at all....not in the way that other movies incorporated some passed-life-skill into the movie.
Horrible waste of time.
