Viewing Notes

Mostly what I expected from a Jason Statham flick, though he seems to spend more time mowing people down with automatic weapons than he does just kicking their asses.

There’s a lot going on (maybe too much): sex trafficking, the Russian mafia, a black drug dealer and his thugs, a blind ex-military buddy who is Statham’s “weapon sommelier”, etc.  At two hours, it seems overlong. 

This is the kind of character Sylvester Stallone would play, and coincidentally, Stallone is the producer and co-wrote the screenplay.
