Even Gerard Butler's simmering stoic performance cannot salvage this disaster of a plot. While quite a few of the cast are first rate, the action of the characters is borderline comedic.
The story starts of with decent intrigue, but it quickly falls apart as the ostensibly "world class" operative turns out to be a bumbling nitwit apparently unable to get from point a to point b without revealing himself. The action is completely phoned in so there is zero tension.
After that is merely a series of cliche sequences. We've seen so much of this before that the movie descends in to boredom.
The real sin here is the waste of talent, beautiful cinematography, and money. I'm sure this was a very expensive disaster.
Don't bother.
