A woman boards the same plane as a rogue agent who is in possession of a new invention and is on the run from his employers who are trying to recover the device. She gets mixed-up in this war, under the rogue agent's protection. They all go after the scientist who created the coveted device and a frantic cat-and-dog chase ensues.
Action thriller with a tongue-in-cheek attitude towards the genre. As the old expression goes, there is never a dull moment in it. I enjoyed it more than the average IMDb voter, an unusual occurrence. The only criticisms I have to offer concern the weird title and the awful song which plays during the end credits. I would probably have passed this film up had I not come across French critic Jean-Sébastien Chauvin's top ten list for 2010 in Cahiers du cinéma.
