Stunt co-ordinator Greg Powell knew immediately that this movie was going to be an exhilarating challenge. "The script was truly action-packed and the sheer number of different stunts was quite exciting for me," he recalled. "The biggest challenge was that with so many fights throughout the story, we had to find a way to keep each one fresh, different and fun." The stunt supervisor began by working with Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. Jackson to match their character's fighting styles up with their divergent personalities - with Bryce (Reynolds) dealing blows with clean precision while Kincaid (Jackson) is more gut-driven in his reactions. "They each see their characters in very specific ways so we really worked to design the stunts to match how Ryan and Sam see Bryce and Kincaid," he explained. Powell was particularly fired-up by the chance to push the pedal to the floor with all the vehicular exploits in the film. "We've got cars, motorbikes, SUVs, police cars and even speedboats racing through the canals of Amsterdam - which is something you've probably never seen on film," he mused.
