Mar 29 2008 By Graham Young

The gun-for-hire strays into the middle of a political coup and becomes a target for both Interpol and the Russian military, while Nika (Olga Kurylenko) offers her own temptations.

Also to buy, from £19.99, with extras including four deleted scenes and an alternative ending.
