Nothing original here. Though the cast is terrific, (particularly the love scene between the gracefully aging Famke Jansen and the lovely, underwear-clad Katherine McPhee) it's the lack of originality that torpedoes this loser. The dialogue is among the worst ever written, particularly those lines from fat little Richard Dreyfus posi g as a scary bad guy and speaking in an indistinguishable accent that's supposed to be Russian (the villains are always white Russians these days). And what movie set in Louisiana would be complete without a body being fed to alligators? They even leave the guy's red socks on his chopped up body so you can see that part was his lower leg and foot. SNOOZE!
