I'm somewhat surprised by the choice, but let's not write off Morel, he has three films to his name and we haven't seen the third one as yet, and although From Paris With Love is looking in a similar vein to Taken and Banlieue 13 (District 13) (Filmstalker review), the two we've seen have been slightly different in tone.
