The life of a young honest Service Officer, who works in London and does her best to save New York from a terrorist attack, while struggling against proving her innocence in the false claims against her.
Pretty much plays like a film made for basic cable that is buoyed for a while by a couple of relatively strong central performances before eventually succumbing to terminal mediocrity in its silly final scenes.
Brosnan has a good time hamming it up as a heartless assassin, but why Jovovich is forced to spend the whole film darting around with black smudges on her face is a mystery.
I'm pretty sure I wasn't supposed to laugh out loud at several points during the press screening of Survivor, but at least I wasn't the only one.
