When someone proposes a story that has Bruce Willis, Helen Mirren, Morgan Freeman and John Malkovich playing ex-CIA operatives out to cause havoc while trying to find their would-be assassins, it doesn't take a genius to say, "Sign me up!" These are all incredibly talented actors on their own, and here they're let loose in a crazy, definitely-came-from-a-comic-book premise. And the whole thing is played for fun. You don't send a kill squad through a suburban city street, firing automatic weapons into a house until it collapses and expect to be taken seriously.
