Viewing Notes

Silly but hard to resist Zaror, Bernhardt, and Adkins all in the same movie on the big screen. It was like a John Wick reunion.  Ofc I like Bautista and he’s fine here just being the big lug. Sadly Boutella is relegated to the thankless girlfriend role which is unfortunate bc we’ve seen her kick ass.

There are some funny scenes but not enough to call this a comedy. I wish they would’ve of leaned into the humor more given how ridiculous the entire movie is. It’s a bit of forced campiness which only half works.
