Another day, another routine thriller from Liam Neeson, falling into about the middle in terms of quality. The plot and set-up are decent enough and there are certainly some suspenseful scenes in the first third, but then it becomes a slow-paced road trip with very little in the way of action or suspense to see it through. Neeson essentially plays his usual grizzled character and the rest of the cast do their best with poorly-crafted characters, VIKINGS actress Winnick among them. It only then picks up right at the end for a traditional western-style climax. Not a bad time-waster, but nothing more.
