A pretty blatant copy of some TV shows and movies

Rating: 5/10 (26 May 2011)

I thought this movie would have a big 'twist' but having seen the whole Bourne trilogy plus the original Bourne Identity, as well as Nowhere Man, this movie seemed incredibly derivative. It's pretty much just a big long chase, with a little twist which you totally see coming if you've seen anything along this line before, and maybe even if you haven't. Lots and lots of long drawn out car chasing. Villains always on their heels. Lots of fighting. It also kind of reminded me of another movie of Leeson - i.e., Taken, which is also one big long chase. So between the plot being so derivative, and the similarities with Taken, this just didn't have much new or interesting for me. Also, while the lost/stolen identity plot worked well in earlier works along these lines, it really seemed out of touch with current information technology, which made it even easier to figure out the 'twist' than it would otherwise have been.
