International, The

Exotic locales and unsympathetic characters dominate this disappointing, unevenly paced, complicated, factually inspired, bullet-ridden political thriller in which an Interpol agent (Clive Owen) and a Manhattan assistant district attorney (Naomi Watts) doggedly pursue an elusive assassin (Brian F. O'Byrne) from Berlin, to Milan, and finally to New York City who is connected to nefarious and corrupt executives (Armin Mueller-Stahl, et al.) at the powerful International Bank of Commerce and Credit (IBCC) in Luxembourg that is involved in money laundering and illegal, underhanded weapon sales to third-world countries.
