"Two agents. One city. No merci."

Boxlist takeUnsavoury and wide-ranging: a heavy crime thriller, fast rather than slow-burning. Best if you like spectacle over intimacy.

Synopsis

James Reese has a good job as an ambassador's aid in France, but his real passion is a side gig—working in a minor role in the CIA. He would love to be a full-fledged agent and can't believe his luck when he lands an assignment with Charlie Wax. Trigger-happy Charlie soon has James crying for his desk job, but when he learns that the same guys they're trying to catch are after him, James realises that Charlie may be his only hope of survival.
