Grating

By Chase Kahn

This French Red Band trailer for Pierre Morel's From Paris With Love (Lionsgate, 2.05.10) makes me wanna see this buddy-spy actioner even less. Partly because I despised Morel's surprise hit of last year, the revenge-thriller Taken, but mostly because I absolutely hated John Travolta's performance in Tony Scott's The Taking of Pelham 123 and what he's doing here looks to be a variation on that.



The bald head, the goatee, the earring, the sarcastic smiling and laughing and overcussing - no thanks! I mean, I'll still see it, but I'm not looking forward to it.
