The Foreigner (review)

Don’t expect Jackie Chan’s impish smile and affable personality because this is a dramatic departure for the action star (he even cries…twice). He plays an immigrant to London, whose daughter is killed in a terrorist bombing. He sets out to find and punish the people responsible. Pierce Brosnan is on hand to complicate the plot. He plays an Irish liaison to the British government whose own interests provide most of the complications (and a bit of confusion). Meanwhile, Chan uses his martial arts skills to exact revenge. It’s fun to watch these occasional scenes, but there’s much more personal interaction (meaning talk) than action.

 

3 out of 5 stars (3 / 5)
