Action/thriller entertainment for the ADD crowd. The entire film was paced as if there was a prize for who could get to the end the fastest. Hyper-kinetic editing and camera work - there wasn't a shot in this film longer than 2 seconds.
Even though the story was preposterous the techniques used held my eyeballs for the whole time...mesmerized by all the movement. The first big chase sequence in Tangier was incredible...by the time we got to the last one in NYC I was as exhausted as the characters would have been if they had any semblance of reality.
Where do they find those guys who willingly race to get maimed or killed by the superhuman protagonist? There are dozens of them and most end up very badly. Guess they get paid a lot...
