The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Sat down to watch this last night. Was going along with it right up to about half an hour where bail bond man from Jackie Brown, Oscar winner, gets himself shot in the stomach in a park. The people in the park hear all this, sees him with blood coming out all over the place, very slowly stagger over to the boating lake. And there's multi-pass standing there with a gun in hand. We are supposed to believe people are just going to stand around taking pics with their phones, just gawping, looking at multi-pass holding her gun after some bloke has been shot. NEVER in a million years, what an insult to your intelligence. At that point, that was the END of the movie for me. Even old folk in that park would have bolted off as fast as they could, contents of shopping bags spilling out in their frantic attempt to avoid being shot. Too many of these movies have these unrealistic scenes, like someone getting stabbed or shot on a subway train and instead of the rest of the occupants getting out the connecting carriages as fast as they can, which they would do, they just sit there with daft looks on their faces as if nothing much has happened. Seen that too many times. Your intelligence will only be a 'survivor' if you give this a miss or give up on it part way through, it's ok to give up on movies & TV series when they insult your intelligence with these 'as if' scenes. Too many 'as if's' or one big one and the show is ruined for me.

This is a terrible movie that made me miss spare Jackie Chan style movie plots. The story makes no sense, and the movie would probably have been 5 times better if they just started with the restaurant scene and removed everything but the action scenes. It's already mindless, but at least that way it wouldn't have been insulting to the point of ruining immersion. None of the characters behave like human beings and every other scene made me wonder why would they ever do that. Terrible writing makes it a waste of what should have been a pretty good cast.

Fire the American ambassador, the British Home Secretary, and the writers of this plot hole driven mess masquerading as a serious film. Kate Abbot (Milla Jovovich) is sent to London and attached to the American consulate because of her skill set in uncovering threats against the United States. When she believes she has found something questionable about Dr. Emil Balan (Roger Rees ), no one believes her. Balan reports to his superiors that there is a problem and they immediately assign a hit man, Nash (Pierce Brosnan) to kill her. His plan to bomb the restaurant she and her friends are at goes slightly awry, she has to go across the street just before the detonation. Of course she becomes the chief suspect and all the police in London, who have the green light from the American ambassador to kill her, can't capture her; and she flies off to New York City to single handed stop a plot to blow up Times Square on New Year's Eve. All I did was yell at the TV while watching this saying for F's sake buy a hat already. At no time during the run does Kate even attempt to disguise herself. She does save New York and even manages to kill Nash at the conclusion. What a waste of a twenty million dollar budget. I hope Brosnan got at least 15 million to be in this dog.

Not worth watching at all.A stereotypical bad action film, "Survivor" is roughly (I'm probably not a good source, I think I fazed out at some point) about some American embassy workers in London, with some explosions etc. And guess what all the British are bad - I know a British accent seems to do strange things to film-makers' brains, but really, isn't that overdone now? Okay, mostly suppressed rant aside, there was really nothing substantial or even particularly good about this movie. The plot goes exactly where you think it's going to go and all the stuff you think happens, does happen. It's predictable and pretty much the same as most of the other "action" movies out there. Also, what's with the name: there is no one in the movie that can really be classed as a "survivor" - except, perhaps, those who, like myself, for some obscure reason actually finished watching the film. And to everyone involved in making this film: you have Milla Jovovich, an absolutely awesome actress, especially for actions films (not to mention the fact you also have an actual James Bond), yet you just have her running around looking confused for basically the whole movie - seriously? You can do better.
