Goofs

In the opening chase scene, as One starts calling out "Baby..baby..baby," we see the car about to hit a woman holding her baby, and behind her on the ground is a bag. In the next two shots, the bag is no longer on the ground, but instead on the woman's shoulder.

Quotes

[first lines]
One: [narrating] What if I told you... I know what happens when you die? You become a ghost, trapped in a shadowland. A world of whispers, invisible except to other ghosts. Orphaned, unable to return to those you loved.
One: But with loneliness comes freedom... to go where you please. Do what you want. Ghosts have one power above all others: to haunt the living. Haunt them... for what they've done.

User Reviews

Disjointed n incoherent back n forth cuts, shaky cam, flickering lights, abysmal editing n screenplay, far fetched parkour n lack of hand to hand combat.

The film starts with a nice picturesque settings, very soothing cinematography but then suddenly it turns into a mindless car chase, of course with lots of bloody carnage n mayhem. The parkour scenes looked too far fetched n done in a very badly shaky cam stuff. It has some bloody shootouts n awesome scenes of car getting sliced but the film got tedious after some time. I had always liked Mélanie Laurent ( her topless scene in Enemy n her distinctive nose). Had expectations with the film but Michael Bay has lost it.

It has some good locations, hottie Laurent, bloody shootouts n a very gory flashbang head exploding scene. Crowd chasing a running Murat (the dictator) n then suddenly Murat getting hit on his bald head n the sound of tock is hilarious.
