The romantic pairing of brawny Gerard Butler and wispy Jennifer Aniston is a sight for sore eyes but makes for sore brains long before the end of Andy Tennant’s rom-com.
He is an ex-cop who is now a bounty hunter, fortuitously assigned to tracking down his ex-wife (Aniston) who has skipped bail and owes money. The feuding couple get mixed up in a criminal conspiracy that threatens both their lives.
I wish there was a modicum of wit to leaven the action sequences but Sarah Thorp’s script doesn’t give either star much to do except race around complaining about each other.
