A fast paced action flick but nothing extraordinary.

Rating: 6/10 (5 October 2008)

I don't really agree with most of the comments posted for this movie and i may be an outcast for this but i must be clear on what i felt. Firstly the movie is way over hyped, the billboards comparing it to bourne series, but in reality it doesn't even touch the class of bourne.
The theme sadly brings no surprises (similar to punisher/commando etc.) with a well trained x-military man trying to rescue his daughter being kidnapped. The main character Liam Nesson doesn't look very convincing as a slick killer with wrinkly face and dimensions of a man more fit to be working in a garden with his grandchildren rather than taking on trained militants.
What i did like about the movie was its fast pace and good direction which makes up for a feeble script and cast. The movie has been intelligently grilled with no fancy stunts or hard to believe action sequences but with smart moves. Worth a one time watch.
