Movie: Killer Elite
Genre: thriller
Synopsis: Danny (Jason Stratham) is the protégé of Hunter (Robert De Niro). The two of them are elite assassins. Danny decides he has had enough and announces his retirement. When an Arab Sheik takes Hunter as a hostage, Danny is forced out of retirement to kill three enemies of the Sheik. The three targets were members of a secret British organization. Davies (Dominic Purcell) is a former British Commando who now freelances and is recruited by Danny to help with the job. Spike (Clive Owen) works for the secret organization and mounts a campaign to kill Danny.
My two cents: Good but not great. Some great action shots. Danny had a girlfriend Yvonne Strahovski (Chuck’s girlfriend on “Chuck”). It was fun to watch her playing the innocent civilian who was in love with a dangerous secret spy-type. If you like Jason Stratham movies, you should like this movie . . . it just lacked something to set it apart.
