I may review once it comes out on RedBox. It just plays like a straight-to-video time killer for me.

I agree the plot was a bit of a incomprehensible mess, but I also agree that Maggie Q and Keaton made this worth watching. I was a big Keaton fan back in the day, and he has a little bit of twinkle again in this. He made me laugh a few times.

Fuxk, this was fun. As others have said, it’s a mess. I didn’t really know what was going on half the time, but Mike Keaton and Maggie Q = 🔥 🔥
Sam Jackson had a decent although very small role.
this was way better than I expected.

i thought this was a lot of fun. many plot twists that you have little idea are coming. i didn't think the plot was a mess at all. not the most original, but it was definitely pretty straight forward, i liked this one a lot. great action. as others have said, Maggie Q, Keaton, just great. Sam played Sam as always. nice little surprise flick.
what i didn't get was:
that's the only thing that bugged me, but i'm sure i missed something and hopefully someone can clue me in.
but, great little action flick and another Martin Campbell winner in my book.
