My opinion
Great action movie with yep … again Jason Statham.
It’s not an original story. Enormously predictable but Statham makes it a feast of it with his coolness and the nice action and fighting scenes. It is indeed a dime-a-dozen film, but for a Saturday night it’s pure entertainment.
In terms of supporting rolls there wasn’t much to admire. Nick Nolte has a meaningless role … and man, that guy looks bloated after all those years. Best he retires and has a well-deserved rest in Palm Beach. And La Lopez is clearly not recruited for her acting talent or her lascivious curves. I’m sure that her buns have been photoshopped on the film poster, because in the film there’s not much to gaze at. She only prancing around in this movie so her well-known name would be on the poster as well!
So it’s an enjoyable action movie with Statham starring in it. He’s quietly picking up the torch from Bruce Willis : hard, dry humor and a coolness that’ll make a fridge at his place completely unnecessary
