Think about it: This was about 110 minutes of stunt men bouncing around the screen and 10 minutes of not very good script, read by highly talented actors (maybe they were being paid by the minute). The cast was excellent, but we don't really get to see enough of them actually acting. Especially Jean Reno. This film is not Leon,but he is in real danger of getting typecast and stuck in this kind of film.
Presumably stunt men felt that they weren't getting enough work, so they went on strike until Hollywood was forced to make a film especially for them.
This film didn't make a big impact on me. The plot was interestingly tangled, but the over long car chases seemed boring, repetitive and clichéd.
