By Alissa Wilkinson Verified| Herald/Review Media Verified Solid setup. But although Charlie commences globe-trotting in search of revenge, the movie somehow feels like it’s treading water, going nowhere at all. He concocts an elaborate plot to force the misbehaving CIA bosses into giving him some training in various agentlike activities (shooting, fighting, making roadside bombs), which they do, under the tutelage of gruff Robert Henderson (Laurence Fishburne). Then, before the bosses catch onto his true plan, he takes off with agents on his tail.
