JdeBPIt looked like just an aerial shot, which wouldn't have required much on the ground, and a long shot up the ferry off-ramp, which wouldn't have closed streets or anything and been just in the port. Probably could have been done in a couple of days, with a double driving the van.
#TheForeigner turned out to be quite good.
Based upon a novel titled 'The Chinaman'. A bit dated after Brexit, government suspensions, and Salisbury; but it was written in the 1980s.
Not what one would expect of either #JackieChan or #PierceBrosnan. Some interesting intrigue in the plot, which was refreshingly complex. And the rarely seen idea that there's more to the United Kingdom than bloody London and the bloody London Eye.
I had a few quibbles with the police procedures, which were somewhat unrealistic, but again clearly so in order to make the plot work. Apparently, they are even less realistic in the novel; so that should probably be counted as a plus point for the movie. (-:
Not as gruesome an aftertaste as Shooter (2007) left, either. Although for those who only know Hollywood's way of shooting people the Troubles reference might be disturbing if one goes and looks it up afterwards.
This is one of the things that #KatieLeung went on to do after Harry Potter.
I re-checked the credits before deleting from the TiVo. There's an acknowledgement for Luton (which presumably filled in for London), and an entire China unit, but no acknowledgement for Larne.
The aerial establisher shot with the P&O ship was clearly filmed there, though. Did much else from there show up? Or was it pretty much blink and you miss Larne and straight on to Belfast in the next shot?
Interestingly, I am now 15 minutes into Jackie Chan's #TheForeigner (2017) and it is like night and day. I was expecting better of Homefront and I was expecting this one to be fairly turgid from the summary in the EPG. There's a lot of time left for it to go downhill, but has been an improvement on Homefront thus far.

The Foreigner (2017)
Quan is a humble London businessman whose long-buried past erupts in a revenge-fueled vendetta when the only person left for him to love – his teenage daughter – dies in an Irish Republican Army car bombing. His relentless search to find the terrorists leads to a cat-and-mouse conflict with a British government official whose own past may hold the clues to the identities of the elusive killers.
