We finally saw this movie on the shelf at the library. I'd wanted to see it in the theater because I liked what I thought the concept was but I never had the time.
I didn't know it was made post Katrina in New Orleans. If I had known that I would have tried harder to see it because as it supported New Orleans, I'd want to support it.
However, there were no authentic New Orleans accents. So I guess the locals only had bit parts with no speaking lines. That was the biggest disappointment for me.
As it was I only knew it was an action flick, and had a hot guy in it and the title. So I waited until it was free at the library.
It was not what I expected story wise either. There were a few gaffes and it took quite a suspension of disbelief sometimes.
For instance, there was NO ONE around, not ONE person anywhere around a particular girl's apartment in the FRENCH QUARTER??? WTF? There is always someone around in the quarter, there was even during and after Katrina for heaven's sake but in this movie, nope, nada, nobody. LOL.
Anyway, it was a fun movie which was much better than expected. The "how of it" was different from most movies of this type.
