Operating alone in the field for more than 20 years, a CIA hitman uses the "Help Wanted" section of the newspapers to get his orders from the Agency. His long-lost daughter, now a UK MI6 analyst, tracks him down to deliver shocking news: his CIA boss has been dead for years and the division long since shut down. Together, they set out to discover whose orders he's been executing.
I don't mind the occasional stripped down action flick. Nor do I mind Aaron Eckhart. That said, Classified is in my estimation, simply poor.
A poorly scripted story, filled with unconvincing characters and clumsy action that's lacking in contextual unity.
In summary, its okay to produce straightforward action flicks but, as a minimum, they need a robust if uncomplicated script that tells a compelling story.
"Come on, Casey. Come on."
"Get to the house! Get to the house!"
"Body GPS."
If those snippets of dialogue don't get you to watch this movie, you'll not miss anything.
