A pickpocket in Paris steals a bag containing a bomb and becomes the target of a determined CIA agent. As they uncover a wider conspiracy, the unlikely pair must work together while navigating dangerous pursuits, political unrest, and threats across the city.

My take

You may enjoy this if you want a fast, straightforward action thriller with chases, conspiracies, and a mismatched partnership; Not for you if you need originality, subtle characters, or airtight logic.
