From Paris With Love (2010) 7/10

Starring : John Travolta, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Kasia Smutniak
Director : Pierre Morel
Running Time : 88 mins

French Ambassadors assistant James Reece (Meyers) is teamed up with special agent Charlie Wax (Travolta) when there are alerted to the possibility of a terrorist attack in Paris. As they travel through the criminal world in search of information, James discovers that he has actually been targeted by the same group that are planning the attack.

Having heard a great deal of negative press about this movie, I was pleasantly surprised after watching it. Granted, it's not Oscar material, and Steven Seagal could easily have played the Travolta role, but fans of action movies with silly story lines and predictable twists will no doubt enjoy this offering.
