Very fun.

Rating: 2/10 (28 June 2008)

It's a lot of fun and that's really all it aims to be. James McAvoy basically proves that he can do anything, as the young, pale Scottish boy turns himself into a believable action star. Angelina Jolie is painfully sexy and perfectly emotionless. My only real complaint is that sometimes it feels like it tries way too hard to be different. Sometimes that works and sometimes it doesn't but the majority of the stuff falls into the former camp so there isn't a lot to complain about. The dialogue is a little silly at times and some of the action fringes on being almost too ridiculous but overall it's really just a lot of adrenaline-fueled fun.
