The Shanghai Job Trailer (AKA S.M.A.R.T. Chase)

By Mark

For some reason, turning yourself into an action hero seems to be all the rage at the moment.

First we’ve had Antonio Banderas with Security and Acts Of Vengeance, and now it’s the turn of Orlando Bloom (Unlocked, Lord Of The Rings) with The Shanghai Job.

The blurb: “Washed-up private security agent Danny Stratton has been reduced to low level bodyguarding operations, after a botched job when a Van Gogh painting in his care was stolen.

“He gets a chance to restore his reputation when he’s given the rare opportunity to escort a valuable Chinese antique out of Shanghai. In the course of the mission he is ambushed, and, with the safety of the woman he loves in jeopardy, Danny has to work with his team of experts to save her, whilst also outsmarting the devious mastermind behind the heist.”
