May 23, 2009A quirky, non-Hollywood film which is engaging because Morgan Freeman is such a charmer. This film is very different and probably will not be liked by the majority. In most respects, it is a pointless film, yet the interaction between Freeman and Paz Vega is priceless.

Morgan Freeman has been playing tough-as-nails action stars for such a long time that it's a delight to see him so loose and easy. full review
