The Courier

Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Mickey Rourke in generic action flick Discuss this article

Mickey Rourke has been enjoying something of a renaissance ever since his Oscar-nominated performance in 2008’s The Wrestler, which makes our hopes higher than they might be for this otherwise generic-sounding action thriller. Middle Eastern director Hany Abu-Assad has a history for directing arty fare (Do Not Forget Me Instanbul, Paradise Now), so hopefully he’s capable of injecting some flair into a potentially yawn-inducing
plot about a courier who is asked to deliver a package to the world’s hottest hitman.
