    Did I care if Largo Winch won his struggle for control of Winch International? Not at all. Did I care about him? No, because all of his action and dialogue were shunted into narrow corridors of movie formulas.

Largo Winch meets Jason Bourne by cinexphile
Great action scenes and beautiful locations. The plot was "Heir Apparent" but overall the movie was entertaining.
