Trivia
The part of Mannings was written specifically with Gary Oldman in mind.

Goofs
Someone is told they are being shot at with a .51-calibre M-82 Barrett sniper rifle. The Barrett only shoots .50-calibre (.51 is a Russian weapon with different case dimensions). When we see the shooter, the rifle is obviously NOT a Barrett but, rather, a hunting-style rifle more likely shooting 7.62mm NATO ammunition.

Wasted Talents

What's Kurylenko and Oldman doing in such a poorly scripted and directed movie?

Watch out for:

1. Writers' limited vocabulary is confined to the F word and screaming fits

2. A bunch of henchmen strolling around in circles in a parking structure

3. The heroine, ex-Bond girl is the female version of John McClane.

4. You'll be eager to walk out of the cinema midway through the movie and certainly don't care if the good guys slice or die.

Don't waste your time and money on this movie.
