Dir Pierre Morel, starring John Travolta, Jonathon Rhys Meyers.
Those who remember Travolta from the big – haired baby – faced hipster days of Saturday Night Fever and grease may do a double – take at the sight of him in his latest role. Big -faced and with little hair – except for a rather distrubing goatee – his appearance is rather unsettling. That just about sums up his performance, too.
James Reese (Meyers) has an enviable life in Paris – a comfortable job as personal aide to the US Ambassador plus beautiful girlfriend.But James craves excitement, and hopes that his sideline as a low – level operative for the CIA will lead to a full – time job as a bona fide agent. On his first senior assignment he is partnered with a pistol – wielding loose cannon called Charlie Wax ( Travolta ); as he’s lead on a dangerous tour through Paris, James realizes the desk job might not be such a bad career choice after all…
There’s a certain entertainment value in this film, but its doused by over-acting and too many far-fetched , confusing twists and turns in the telling. Travolta’s dismal performance and a badly directed script will give anyone a fever – day or night.
For those of you who did not have a chance yet to watch the movie, better grab your chance now to visit your nearest malls to watch the movie. I’m pretty so sure you’ll definitely had a great day out for the said movie. Okay! That’s it for now ’cause I still have to find a promotional products as per my boss ask me to search for one. For the upcoming Open House Day of our Company which will be on 3rd week of March. He wants to advertise our products and services by giving a promotional products. Have a great movie everyone!
