Movie Review: From Paris With Love

Movie review: From Paris, With Love.

3/5 stars

Well I saw this movie last weekend and enjoyed it.

It’s not something I would recommend for a second viewing, nor was it all that amazing, but it had its moments.

Jonathan Rhys-Meyers plays Reece, an ambassador’s aide in Paris, who also sidelines as an espionage agent changing license plates for other spies. He is teamed up with Charlie Wax (John Travolta having a great time) who cuts a swathe through Paris killing pretty much everyone in an attempt to find some terrorists (or drug dealers, or terrorist drug dealers… I’m not sure).

The action scenes were great, John Travolta was awesome, Rhys-Meyers was alright, although should never attempt an American accent again. Overall it kept my attention, wasn’t too long, had nicely paced tension and was enjoyable.
