Viewing Notes

Had forgotten p much everything in this movie including Michelle Yeoh being stuntcasted in a role that could’ve been anyone. As much as I love her presence it’s annoying when they don’t give her anything to do. Just doesn’t have to fight or whatever just give her something, anything to do.

This movie is just old enough where Jessica Alba can get a second billing above Tommy Lee Jones (in a very bit role). The action is fine and Statham is doing his thing but still lots of dumb plus that silly romance. Very forgettable, clearly since I didn’t remember any of it.

All that said it is kinda funny and entertaining when Statham portrays these overpowered characters that can’t be beat and destroys dozens of opponents. So a mild six out of ten stars.
