From Paris With Love

Definitely a half way decent action movie from Luc Besson.  For those of you who don't now the name Luc Besson is the director of the Transporter Movies as well as one of the best science fiction movies of all time... The Fifth Element.  In From Paris With Love John Travolta (yes I know.. generally I don't care for him.. but he was half way good in this one) playing a hard boiled secret agent trying to stop a bunch of terrorists from killing a bunch of delegates.  Along for the ride is Jonathan Rhys Meyeres character... a rookie agent assigned to him..   After a short introduction these two fly through the movie from one action sequence to another.   The action is interspersed with tons of comedic one liners and situations from Travolta.. making for a very entertaining movie.   Only one short scene went over the top with a pretty cheesy line from Meyers but that can be overlooked.. otherwise From Paris With Love works awesomely for what it is.. a great action movie.   4.0/6.0
