When this Vin Diesel vehicle isn't pointlessly frenzied, it's narratively inert, wasting some decent production design, and a French-flavored cast primed for fun.

In Babylon A.D Vin Diesel stars as a veteran-turned-mercenary who is hired to deliver a package from the ravages of post-apocalyptic Eastern Europe to a destination in the teeming megalopolis of New York City. The "package" is a mysterious young woman with a secret.
What are people saying?
What are critics saying?
The New York Times by A.O. Scott
Our judgments, in any case, may be superfluous, since the director, Mathieu Kassovitz, has already publicly described it as "pure violence and stupidity."
New York Daily News by Elizabeth Weitzman
The plot makes absolutely no sense.
ReelViews by James Berardinelli
The lackluster acting and horrendous dialogue don't help.
As long it sticks to that chase, Babylon A.D. remains a sub-passable lead-footed action film with neat scenery.
The Hollywood Reporter by Michael Rechtshaffen
A towering heap of nihilistic nonsense that plays like a cornball "Children of God."
