A relentlessly paced action movie with a good cast elevating the material to likable status among cheap action flicks. The movie looks good, has decent chemistry among the cast, has quite a few funny moments, and even manages to lampoon the cliches of action movies while simultaneously embracing them without failing. I enjoyed myself, despite the story being all over the place and not making much sense at times. It's a preposterous movie, but one that makes it a compliment rather than a complaint. In other words, its brainless, but when it looks and sounds this good, I'm willing to accept it. It might be shallow, but occasionally that works.
