Trivia

There are at least two allusions to Brosnan's former role as James Bond. When Spall offers his gun, Brosnan momentarily holds it against his cheek in the iconic 007 pose. Later, when all four heroes are scaling a cliff, the score briefly becomes a faux John Barry action cue. See more »

Goofs

When Kate cruises the Mediterranean with her newly found young French lover Jean-Baptiste, the boy's speedboat flies a dutch flag, not a french one: The colors are the same, but rather than horizontal, the 'tricolore' has vertical stripes. See more »

I am embarrassed for these two fine actors!
1 September 2014 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

This might "spoil" it for some, all discerning movie lovers, I'm sure! I will keep this short. First I gave it a "1" because I couldn't finish the thing and I have only not finished about 3 movies ever, of tens of thousands. I love these two talented actors and have no idea why they would put themselves in such a...trite, mundane, substance lacking piece.

Let me also say I never review, I just couldn't sit still for this one. I blame the director/writer. There is really no story here, just fluff, and not pretty fluff. My condolences to Pierce and Emma. Joel Hopkins must have gotten lucky on Last Chance Harvey, it was OK, weak, but OK, but this one...well, it's insulting.
