I am ashamed to admit that this empty-headed, preposterous, possibly evil mlange of gunplay and high-speed car chases on Parisian boulevards is a feel-good movie that produces a buzz.

To his credit, Travolta hams it up with the kind of laissez-faire irony that might have made the film a tongue-in-cheek pleasure, had his attitude extended to the filmmakers.
I hasten to say this is not criticism of John Travolta. He succeeds in this movie by essentially acting in a movie of his own.
A ''fun trash'' movie that's more trash than fun.
Travolta has/is a blast in an action-thriller-comedy that otherwise comes up short.
So leaden and obnoxious that it actually makes you long for the John Travolta of "Old Dogs."
Still, the action is ponderous too. Mr. Morel is no Kubrick, or Tarantino, just as Mr. Travolta's caricature of John Travolta is no Travolta.
