CRIMINAL follows a dangerous convict (Kevin Costner) who's implanted with the memories & skills of a deceased CIA agent (Ryan Reynolds) in a last-ditch effort to stop a diabolical plot. As outlandish as the plot seems, the film features a hell of an ensemble cast including Gary Oldman, Tommy Lee Jones, Alice Eve, and Gal Gadot. Are they enough to keep everything grounded? Check out the first trailer and see for yourself!
If I didn't know any better, I'd say this was a Luc Besson production! Still, I think Costner has it in him to be a real badass. The premise is whatever, but if they can keep the momentum going and the action scenes well-shot, this could be an enjoyable ride. After all, you could do worse than having Gary Oldman yell at everyone.
CRIMINAL hits theaters on April 15, 2016.
