Murky nonsense that aspires to get by on what it considers to be a trenchant cynicism about geopolitical chess.

It moves quickly enough, but really it is a standard issue shoot-em-up with nothing to distinguish it.

Shot in that standard slick, hyper-masculine style, this thriller relies heavily on the audience's familiarity with cliches as it skips around its scrambled narrative.

This standard, middle-of-the-road action film is entertaining enough, if you can overlook the fact that it co-stars Gibson...even if you can look past his participation, you might still find that there's not much meat to the film's story.
