Will Shaw is a Wall Street trader who is
really worried his business has gone down the tubes. It doesn’t help that he’s left to meet his family for a vacation in Spain and his luggage is still in San Francisco. He joins them on a large sailboat and his father gets so
irritated with him not paying attention on the boat and using his phone all the
time that he throws the phone into the water. Will swims ashore but when he gets back the boat is
not there. He locates the boat in a cove
but everyone is gone. This leads
to disclosure of dark family secrets and a government conspiracy.
There are so many problems with this film
it’s hard to begin to list them but “cold” is a good start! Cavill is a newbie at international
intrigue but he plays his character with a wild-eyed innocence throughout even
though he is gaining experience.
People get severely beaten and they look just about normal after the
beating? Weaver doesn’t mind
killing everyone in her path and the chase scene in cars is good but too little
too late for this film. 2* (I didn't like this movie)
