Toronto

Most of the movie is fun to watch, with some well-done action scenes that do not go completely over the top with ridiculous stunts and impossible feats. Colin Farrell is great, as usual, and Sam Jackson is his usual self. Complaints: they stole the idea off a James Bond flick (Licence to Kill) about a captured criminal who offers a hefty reward for anyone that will break him out; some of the dialogue is pathetic; it's predictable; and my biggest complaint: there's no payoff!!! The ending is abrupt and wholly unsatisfying. If they're going to remake an old TV show into a movie, why this? Why not CHIPs or Dukes of Hazzard or something?
