The bullshit meter went up quite a bit in the second hour. Too much to enjoy this film as much as the hour before and although I wasn't bored, it did detract from the experience and the score. Not that the first hour is a chunk of credibility, but it was still passable. Moreover, the excellent pacing, atmospheric warm images, the okay action and the fine leading role of Beckinsale help considerably - the film was just very pleasant cinematic fodder for an hour. Nice to watch and well made. Only the film really doesn't make sense towards the end. 3.0*.

Mediocre to weak action film. The story is not really original. The execution is quite limited without any intelligence. The twist at the end does not really get off the ground and unfortunately offers nothing more than an 'it will all be fine' thought. The action is very average and often looks rehearsed. Beckinsale is quite disappointing and causes more and more irritation during the film, because she walks around with an open mouth and a watchful look for 95% of the film. Probably limited by the amount of Botox. A waste of such a woman. 2.0/2.5

Avery Graves [Kate Beckinsale] works as a secret agent for the CIA. Terrorist Konrad Breznov [Goran Kostic] kidnaps Avery's husband David [Rupert Friend] and gives her ninety minutes to recover a file that is supposedly in the tooth (!) of Laszlo Stoica [Luka Alagic]. She manages to get her hands on the tooth, but the file turns out to have been deleted. Then follows a race against the clock in which the CIA hunts her down, because she is supposedly a traitor. Avery's only lifeline is her supervisor Jarvis Hedlund [Ray Stevenson]. The absurd opening makes it clear that we are not supposed to think (always difficult) and that we should mainly concentrate on the action scenes. The action scenes are fine, but the plot is completely illogical. Of course that doesn't have to be a problem, but for me it is.
