A Mensageira

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.

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.

Terrible editing, Horrible soundtrack, cardboard characters. The whole movie feels like we are following a film crew around while the actors rehearse their lines. Gary Oldman will apparently take any job he can get. He does wear an eye-patch though...good call by the wardrobe department; they really earned their keep.

Painful to watch, cardboard acting, stupid story, cant believe Oldman and Kurylenko took part in this.

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.
