It's cool to jump through the air shooting without taking aim and to curve bullets is AWESOME.. Or IS it?

Rating: 4/10 (11 August 2008)

When I first heard of this movie, I thought it might be an interesting take on the action-genre and with Freeman and Jolie in the cast it reinforced my thoughts.
Taking a pile of assassins with the ability to dodge bullets, shoot wings off of flies, jump from scraper to scraper and much much more, is surely to make one hell of an action-flick.
Sadly this couldn't be farther from the truth. The script must have been written down by a 12-year-old, who must have been retarded too. All the action gets lost in the infantile mood and exaggerated abilities, which aren't explained with more than 5 words.
The movie is a mess and Freeman, who I think is a well performing actor, can't even remotely hide the bad writing or the irretrievable lame execution of this movie.
I am mostly disappointed with this movie... And 4 stars equals very generous! Watch it if: It doesn't take more than Jolie with a tattoo and Freeman in a suit to maintain your interest.
