The question that comes to my mind is why would you try and remake a movie like "Charade". The original is a great deal of fun mostly because of the chemistry and style of Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn. The leads here are never very appealling. Mark Wahlberg is a good actor, but this requires a very light touch and that is not his stength. The whole movie is flat and uninteresting. The only fun moments are provided by the use of Charles Aznavour and his music.
