THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS. FOR SOME REASON THE SPOILER START / END MARKS ARE NOT WORKING



I wouldn’t normally write such a long review but this deserves it. Tiresome action flick the story for which is basically an excuse to sling together a bunch of gunfight sequences. Breaks down into 5 parts really:

1 Copy of the overly long Jack Ryan movie recuperation opening but with added snow, just dragged out longer.

2 Console shooter game video with better graphics as ‘one man army’ rescues his wife’s sister and her kids from some druggie / mafia prison in Georgia.

3 Establishing reason for part 4 (another gunfight). Every second rate movie needs a ‘spanner in the works’ to stop things working out (saves the writers have to work to hard to come up with an intelligent script). In this case, it’s a selfish, snot-nosed kid (SNK)with a sulky face because he’s been rescued from prison and misses his, now dead, dad who put him there. Of course, the “A Team” that rescued said brat leave a sat phone lying around on a plane, doesn’t miss it when SNK pinches it and uses it, again, nobody notices. Of course, he tells their pursuers where they are going. Dull. [/spoiler]

4 Another video game shoot-out, this time druggie / mafia seems to have an army of ex-special forces on hand. Difference is, they have ample weapons to shoot down helos, unlike dipshit in charge of the “A Team” who previously had none. SNK runs off with his dead dad’s brother and is now sulky because he doesn’t like it there either.

5 Final seqeunce. Dipshit goes to ssttle the score with head baddie, SNK tries to redeem himself, and the last but one remaining good guy (girl in this case) also nearly dies dies. So great run in all dipshit, all your chums die so you can run off on a selfish mission to try and give yourself a reason to live. Better if you’d stayed dead or retired really. Still, at least Olga Kurylenko looks as good as ever.

Absolute crap!
