I don't mind the occasional stripped down action flick. Nor do I mind Aaron Eckhart. That said, Classified is in my estimation, simply poor.
A poorly scripted story, filled with unconvincing characters and clumsy action that's lacking in contextual unity.
In summary, its okay to produce straightforward action flicks but, as a minimum, they need a robust if uncomplicated script that tells a compelling story.

"Come on, Casey. Come on."
"Get to the house! Get to the house!"
"Body GPS."
If those snippets of dialogue don't get you to watch this movie, you'll not miss anything.
