Plot Gap IMO

Rating: 6/10 (19 March 2018)

Bad guy1 hires Bad guy2 to steal ancient artifact made of secret material. Bad guy2 gets it and tried to sell it to bad guy1 via CIA who Bad guy1 works for. Bad guy1 wants to go to secret city and wants Bad guy2 to get him there. In the mix of the transfer of secret material to CIA, Bad guy1 shoots Bad guy2 and goes to secret city anyway. Why didn't Bad guy1 just go to the secret city in the first place and save us the 45 minutes that we just lost of our lives???
