The latest action movie to be released by Warner Home Video is that of From Paris with Love which stars John Travolta and Jonathan Rhys Meyers. The movie centers around Meyer’s character, James Reece who is doing everything he to become a secret agent. He enters a fast track when he meets his new partner, Wax, a CIA veteran who shows him ‘how things are done’!
Synopsis: Living an enviable life in Paris, James Reece (Meyers) works as a personal aide to U.S. Ambassador. Unsatisfied and desperate for a taste of the real action Reece snaps up the chance to take on his first real CIA mission. Partnered with wisecracking and trigger-happy special agent Charlie Wax (Travolta) in a race to stop deadly terrorists, his action fantasy fast becomes a living nightmare.
Thrust into the violent Parisian underworld, Reece finds himself in the ultimate fight for his life against the highly dangerous crime ring they’re trying to bust. In an electrifying showdown, it seems that brash, straight-talking agent Wax might be Reece’s only hope for making it through the next forty-eight hours alive…
From Paris with Love kept me entertained throughout. The storyline was nothing that we hadn’t seen before but the action sequences and creativity in the direction really did stand out from director, Pierre Morel (Taken; The Transporter). Jonathan Rhys Meyers managed to pull of his American accent for most of the movie and John Travolta plays pretty much the same character that he did in Pelham 123 except in this, he’s the good guy!
If you like action, cheesy one liners, good fight sequences, a pretty good twisting story and John Travolta kicking some butt, then this one is probably for you!
