Major Spoilers. The movie and the story does not deserve protection. Viewers do to avoid wasted time. So, skip this review if you think you might enjoy George Clooney squint and chew gum a lot.
I did want to like this movie. I like movies about professional killers who are so good even their clients want them dead. But they don't die. This film and story was weak in many ways. 1. It is obvious who is out to kill him in Sweden has to be in his network. 2. His contact acts like he doesn't know what he is asking but what handler would not know since he has to do the cleanup. 3. What was very contrived happens everywhere. Hardly anyone else is seen beyond who was necessary for the scenes. Production saved a lot of money and production time by having hardly any extras or crowds except at the end. The road both country and village are empty. A rare vehicle is seen. While walking streets, no one else is seen unless they are in the story. The priest is so very contrived he seems to be only a device. Like a spiritual conscious but not real yet he is there on purpose without a reason. No, shooting with left had from a two wheel Vespa scooter while steering with right hand on the throttle, Jack could not shoot out the tires. All other shooting with the 007 gun was with the right hand.
Very clever way to take the one sent to kill him. It's a good thing Jack had to make the rifle that was going to be used to kill him.
The ending is pathetic. It make all the rest of the super hit man skills worthless. Wounded in and bleeding the left side when that was the away side when he kills his handler. The girlfriend prostitute was beautiful and the second best actor. George had so few lines, but he was eye candy. Superheroes and secret agents don't die like that.
