A 2nd rate James Bond.
Would be assassins go around nosily shooting dozens of people in London with no sign or sounds from Joe Public or police sirens. The painfully thin actor that plays the trigger man is totally unbelievable as a tough guy who is able to easily throw around the bad guys in hand to hand combat, the same applies to Knightly. Knightly wanders off into the knight leaving her children at home, with no protection, not even a nanny in sight and she’s not missed by anyone. The scene where an assassin enters her home and gets the better of her only to let her walk towards him telling him he shouldn’t of threatened her family, in real life he’d of eliminated her there and then but he allows her to get close enough to kick his butt and disarm him, she then told him she’s going to kill him and tells him to walk to the shed, why on earth would a pro hit man not resist if he knew he was going to die anyway? What did he have to lose by putting up resistance?
It was all so absurd. The only good thing was the cinematography which was stunning, London never looked better.
