There's quite a few things wrong in the new red-band trailer for From Paris With Love, and no, none of them have anything to do with the insane action-- that's what director Pierre Morel (also of Taken) does very, very well. No, this is a movie in which John Travolta sports a bald head, a goatee and a giant earring, and his character's name is Wax, and he has a penchant for using the code phrase "Wax on, wax off." And this is a movie in which Jonathan Rhys-Meyers, perhaps the best thing out of Ireland since Jameson, sports an American accent that's passable, but completely removes his not-inconsiderable sex appeal.

And yet, the action looks pretty good, and as we learned from the ridiculous plot and dialogue in Taken, that's all we need from Pierre Morel before we make his movies a hit. Check out the trailer below (once you get past the age gate) courtesy of Trailer Addict. It includes French subtitles for some reason, so maybe you can educate yourself while pondering where the hell John Travolta went off the rails. The movie comes out February 5.
