Yet another secret agent betrayed by his agency and left
completely burned. No country, no cash and countless former colleagues trying
to erase him. The Expatriate adds a twist from Taken in that the former kill
team specialist Ben Logan played by Aaron Eckhart finds the safest place for his estranged daughter Amy is by his
side. Amy is represented by Liana Liberato
in a barely convincing way. However Eckhart
sells the solid plot. Former
Bond Girl Olga Kurylenko credibly fills the role of a former lover who double betrays him.
Jean Reno who was brilliant (Mission Impossible,
Ronin) has an unaccredited but critical bit part. Philipp Stölzl is a newish
director who leaves a good first impression.
