They put stars in this movie to attract people, Alexander Petrov is a star in Russian cinema, and many know him from at least T-34 (the 3rd biggest box office Russian movie of all times) and Mickey Rourke, who made interesting movies back then, but they don't do anything interesting here, the funny and lively Petrov stutters in English (the trailer is misleading) and Rourke is in the final shot, being the actor we all know he is, the story is interesting but the producers and director could have done a better job if they had made a documentary and not a movie which forces actors, whose mother language is not English, to fight with the dialogues, they all sound like Bela Lugosi in Dracula, except Mickey Rourke.
But I can´t blame the director for hiring Petrov for a boring role, if I was the director of anything movie or the producer I'll run into Alexander´s Petrov arms because he is the kind of star Hollywood will never have again, they still have Tom Cruise but he is not that young anymore, how long until Tom Cruse stop doing the charming main character.
