Gary Oldman should know better, but, he prolly got a nice paycheck for a couple of hours work wearing an eyepatch and listening to opera's, while staring and gesturing into the camera. Dermot Mulroney hasn't actually starred in anything in ages, but has found his niche playing forgettable characters in C-List movies, however, it pays the bills, so, who am I to judge? They were pretty much the poster "bait" in this bait and switch straight to DVD (not even on Blu Ray) endeavor, which is pretty much a feminized rip-off of The Transporter, but with packages and a Motorcycle instead of people and cars.

Olga Kurylenko, who continues her run as the pretty on the outside, but deadly underneath "Bond Girl" type with a past she's trying to put behind her, but then, "a girls gotta do what a girl's gotta do", when push comes to shove. It's not horrible, but, you really have to suspend disbelief unless you believe that Rhonda Rousey or Holly Holmes on their best day's could take out Tyson Fury, Mike Tyson, or Dave Bautista in a street fight. The mismatches are just THAT mismatched. It COULD have worked if she outsmarted them, or, was hella stealthy about dispatching the baddies, but, often, she just strides up and goes ham on them, to the point that it's just plain silly.

More believable it the treachery that multi billions can purchase, even in the formerly esteemed halls of the alphabet agencies, given the current state of events and guvment' corruption.

There IS however a nice twist in a twist at the end, which, if this were a slightly better movie, might warrant a follow up, but, I think it's best to let this dog lie, as it peacefully passes away in it's sleep.
