Exciting political thriller
After Jackie Chan’s daughter is killed by the so called ‘authentic IRA’ he sets out to track down her killer, by coercing ex IRA member and now deputy minister Pierce Brosnan to find out who did it.

2 stories essentially run in parallel here, Chan’s revenge which gives us most of the standard, albeit well paced action and Brosnan working to find the killers whilst his past catches up with him

Not surprisingly given Martin Campbell is at the helm this hangs together well particularly the political elements and a fine star performance from Brosnan – seeing an older more subdued turn from Chan is also interesting

Solid action in London and Northern Ireland
As this film opens widower Ngoc Minh Quan drops off his daughter driving his daughter in London; moments later a bomb explodes killing her. A previously unknown group calling itself the ‘Authentic IRA’ claims responsibility; it uses recognised code words and the explosives match those known to be in the IRA’s possession. Quan repeatedly contacts the police and is assured they are doing everything they can. When he learns of the Irish connection he contacts the Deputy First Minister of Northern Ireland; Sinn Féin’s Liam Hennessy. Hennessy, a former active member of the IRA, denies any knowledge of involvement and is using his contacts to try to find out who might be involved. This isn’t enough for Quan; he heads to Belfast and soon proves that he is more than just a cook as he starts pressuring Hennessy in some fairly explosive ways.

If you watch this expecting light-hearted action, due to Jackie Chan playing the lead roll you might be a little surprised… the opening scene makes it clear that this will be one of his grittier films, although not as dark as ‘Shinjuku Incident’. Chan is on great form, he may be getting on a bit but he is still believable in the films numerous action scenes. Pierce Brosnan is also on fine form as Hennessy, a character whose appearance is clearly modelled on Gerry Adams. The rest of the cast is pretty solid as well. The story moves at a quick pace and the action is nicely varied. There are explosions, shootings, hand to hand combat and the use of booby traps of the sort used in the Vietnam War. Martin Campbell did a fine job directing; I didn’t realise he was the director while watching but wasn’t surprised to learn as certain aspects reminded me of his superlative ’80s miniseries ‘Edge of Darkness’. Overall a solid film that is well worth watching if you like action films with political elements.
