interesting idea, wrong executed

The powerful CEO of the W Group, Neiro Winch, is murdered. Now the firm has to find an heir. The adoptive son Largo Winch who is captured in a prison in Brazil, and he has to fight his way to the top...
The movie is French... French, well they sometimes make very good movies(e.g. The Intouchables) but mostly their movies are, well, not that good. And this movie was one of them. They tried to pay tribute to the American action movies, but they failed. The idea was perfect for an action movie, but the way the script was written was awful, it was fully packed with stupid one-liners and awful dialogues. And the chemistry between all the characters is very bad, there are some twists inside but they were predictable.
The acting was very very bad. Every single actor tried to do the best, but they looked fragile. The direction was very poor. It looked "wrong"
so, on the whole: Poorly directed, badly acted and wrong executed.
