Jean Reno plays a grizzled hitman (what else?) holed up in a cabin in the snowy wastes of Washington state (filmed in Ukraine). A mysterious woman has a snowmobile accident and gate-crashes his solitude. Meanwhile a clichéd cop is on his tail. The various strands don’t hang together, the plot treads water and the slow pace leads only to a brief and unconvincing action ending. Still, if you’re in an unforgiving mood, the snowy scenery may just about be enough to keep you watching.
Love Jean Reno. He must be hard up to do random rubbish like this. Is hard to actually work out where they are supposed to be, let alone what is going on. Lost it for me in first few minutes when girl crashes the skidoo and her helmet falls off! Then the false blood....then the multiple lumps of wood embedded in her.........then the almost ballet action a few days later when nipping down slippery wooden steps on tippy toe.......followed a bit later with half a limp come back........could have done with her in battle of Trafalgar.............
I do like a bit of Jean Reno and to see him in this role as almost an ageing Leon was a joy. It's not an all action shoot out of a movie but stick with it and all will be revealed. An enjoyable slow burner of a film.
