MEDiA: Chief of Station, 2024

I kind of like Aaron Eckhart, aesthetically. I recall enjoying seeing him as Doolittle in Midway. I saw this, Chief of Station, on Amazon Prime, and thought ‘why not?’

That’s a good face.

Unfortunately the story is layer upon of layer of nonsense. As is the general rule for this kind of cloak n’ dagger stuff. At least the ol’ James Bond stuff had a bit of style. This, alas, is really just too basic/formulaic.

Sexy assassin…

It is, I suppose… aargh, shoot… rather like the by the numbers team that put this together, I can’t be bothered!

Branca, he’s English. Inevitably, the villain.

Truth be told, this is perfunctory. It’s watchable. Just. I made it through. But only just. Fortunately there’s just enough action to make it watchable. But no, I wouldn’t recommend it.
