IN THEATERS FRIDAY 2/5
Don't be fooled by the title: Romance barely plays a part in this mediocre, Paris-set action movie in which a gun-happy spy (John Travolta) joins a buttoned-up CIA man (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) to stop a terrorist attack. Travolta's potty-mouthed thug (echoing his The Taking of Pelham 123 character) elicits some laughs, but the thriller has too many bullets and too little intrigue.
