May 31, 2014 I went to avoid this film for the longest time because Asia Argento is kind of scuzzy-looking, and it looked like B-movie crap, but the poster is not only misleading, but completely ridiculous, Argento is third billing, and plays a straight-up cop, her "nicest" role I've seen to date, not some vamp with a gun and a tattoo. Directed by a pre-Transporter3/Taken2 Olivier Megaton, it evokes the same Luc Besson-ish themes, only in a better way than either of the Taken or Transporter films. See more Apr 9, 2012 Megaton did a great job with Transporter 3 and Colombiana, really looking forward to Taken 2. This earlier work has similarities with Leon/The Professional. Instead of an apartment, it's a car, but they both end up at a hotel and have a shootout. The acting is dry, and the horrible operatic score at the end hurts it significantly, but the engaging directing and shootout makes it worth watching.

See more Jul 3, 2009 I admit I bought this only because I've been in love with Asia Argento (which has nothing to do with XxX, because I've never watched that crap) for years. And I was surprised to find an entertaining action/thriller. See more Jun 21, 2009 hmmm strange film - a little bit like Leon but without the same level of style See more May 31, 2009 Poor acting, but not a bad movie See more Read all reviews
