I liked the Bricklayer

Aaron Eckhart stars as a CIA agent, Steve Vail, who retired and is now a bricklayer. (Hence the title of the film.) He is called back to action when someone goes on a rampage killing journalists in Europe and framing the CIA. Nina Dobrev stars as a rookie agent who works with him. I liked it. The action scenes are good and I liked Eckhart and Dobrev in this. They don't become romantically involved but there is some respect developed. I liked that.  At one point the villain demands to be paid in Bitcoin to stop his rampage. In five or six years if Bitcoin dissolves that will date the film. I liked think this will be worth re-watching.
