I had high expectations before watching the movie , and I was disappointed
Pointless, no plot, no script and very bad action scenes ... It lacks some violence materiel
The ending was awful

Nonstop action with decently shot car chases. Nothing you haven't seen before and that is the problem of the movie. It's been done better many times before. Everything here just feels really mediocre. The dialogue is quite terrible. Often feeling like it's from some bad video game with the characters saying random quotes that don't add anything to the story. The action is sometimes too over the top and characters behave in stupid ways. The small twist in the end doesn't save much. At least the action is quite intense, so the movie is possibly worth one watch. Also Selena Gomez isn't that horrible in it. Still this movie could have been so much better.

Yes, there are spoilers ahead....stop reading if you haven't watched the movie yet.First off, I think the filming location was a poor choice. It was set in Bulgaria but it should have been set more appropriately in Switzerland.....mainly because there were more plot holes than a chuck of Swiss cheese. It's the little things that spoil the movie, for example:~The entire plan seemed a little bit elaborate and pointless. ~The car was armoured and unbreakable....until the last scene. ~Bulgaria must have an incredible back up generator, because for a city that lost its power grid and lights.....there seemed to be a lot of lights....and erm, power. ~What sort of high executive banker informs his daughter of the bank security arrangements if the power is lost? ~Apparently a race car driver is a crack shot with a pistol, unlike the bad guys with automatic weapons.The movie isn't THAT bad...you just need to leave your brain at the door prior to hitting the start button. If you want to see a lot of car chases and a bit of excitement then give it a go. Just don't expect "Die Hard" or "Ocean's Eleven"Oh, and what is it with keeping Jon Voight a secret and hiding his identity? Good grief, we ALL knew it was him, right from the get-go :P

...But they weren't in this movie. There were maybe two brief sequences with some interesting cinematography, and the concept of making the sidekick a smartass young woman were the only things I liked. I'll give it five stars for that. For the rest: boring chase sequences, uninspired cinematography, inane dialogue, unrealistic motivations, tired story idea (woman in distress AGAIN), etc., it gets one star for an average of three total. All that said, I must admit to being pleasantly surprised at how well Selena Gomez held up her part. She did keep me watching in spite of being pretty bored by the whole thing. Now I want to see if she can do well in a better movie.
