Nonsensical action flick

Rating: 3/10 (19 July 2014)

This movie was filled with nothing but impossible stunts and action sequences. But I guess they had to add a ton of car chases and explosions to distract viewers from the lack of chemistry between the wrongly cast actors. Tom cruise is getting too old to play these roles. Climbing cliffs and scaling buildings with no safety equipment? And we're supposed to buy that bull?
Paula Patton has zero charisma and is not a skilled actor. Rennes on the other hand is a skilled actor but somehow did not fit in. The casting was just off, even bizarre. We all know that the sand storms featured in the film were grossly exaggerated like everything else. The only thing missing from this movie was a good script.
