A newly paroled American goes to South Africa , picks up a (wrong)rental car concealing a phone, a gun and a woman tied and gagged.It sounds like a good thriller but then the ruin of a potentially good story starts. Paul Walker,the tourist has been shown to be so daft that you wonder if he even read the script before appearing in the movie ! A dumbest of paroled convict would know that there is something seriously wrong when you find a message "keep it clean" and a gun with a silencer! Now rather than going to the police,you are running around with a woman tied in the back of your car in an alien country while a seemingly very impatient wife awaits you! He is flashing the gun to the woman(hostage) without listening to her but he is very obedient to an unknown man at the other end of phone line without apparent reason . Paul also keeps shouting and beating the poor car steering needlessly and that is irritating .
And then you take a stand to right a wrong! Meanwhile a goon who is incompetent enough to leave a hostage in a rental car has the resources to do a background check upon the tourist in USA and put whole of the law enforcement of the city at his tail!
This movie has so many inconsistencies and lack of thought in its execution that by the end you are frustrated and quite honestly a little bit angry at the fact that this same fellow did "Running Scared" . This is a terrible movie with shallow characters, poor production quality , scrappy screenplay. It should not be watched and Paul should vow to himself not to do anything this idiotic a movie or else he will disappoint his fans very much. My advice to all having watched Paul Walker in a any of his other movies is to avoid this disaster.
