Review: a good holiday read
Rating: 4 out of 5

It is a movie on paper, all the elements of a good action film are here - the killer who is actually a 'nice guy', the diabolic Russiansand ape-like Checks, picturesque setting, a lot of turns and tricks. I like the intensity of the story and the motivation of the actionhero, yet the trite juxtaposition 'good West - bad East' is somewhat stale and smells badly. Another weakness is the use of rarewords, which would not bother me in an academic text, but here they stand out too much.
