Director Hany Abu-Assad
Staring Mickey Rourke, Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Til Schweiger
Rated MA
Score 1/6
A specialist carrier is hired to deliver a mysterious case to the underworld’s most dangerous hitman.
I am not familiar with Israeli director Hany Abu-Assad’s work and to be honest I really was not that impressed with this straight to DVD movie, it almost seemed that Abu-Assad and the writers had little or no talent for the Action-Thriller genre. Despite the casting of some fantastic actors such as Mickey Rourke, Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Til Schweiger it seemed that they were not used to their fullest abilities. Most notably Rourke who really was not featured in the movie until the last ten minutes of the movie.
For those of you who are interested The Courier was featured in Season 1 episode 9 of the reality television series Sons of Guns
