Review

A team of window cleaners in a London high-rise suddenly find themselves in the midst of a highly professional terror operation aimed at the high-profile energy company based in the building. This is a fairly standard action thriller with solid production values and a run-of-the-mill story that will likely pass you by like window cleaners outside your office. Martin Campbell's (GoldenEye, Casino Royale) direction is industrious, but the film tucks itself too neatly into timeworn thriller tropes and British TV-crime traditions. There’s slick, predictable action, unremarkable, quippy characters, and an only half-engaging plot that feigns relevance by latching onto the topical climate-change scare.
