Title: So-so
Product review: We were looking for a standard Statham action thriller for a Saturday night popcorn movie. Left us a bit dissatisfied. As expected, Statham provided an excellent imitation of a tree - wooden looks, monotonic voice and zero emotion. But, unlike other Statham fare, the action sequences in this one were pretty run-of-the-mill and ho-hum. Maybe he's set the bar high enough that what would have been cool 5 years ago is now boring. No "wow" scene. The plot was so transparent I can only assume the screenwriters worked for free. Donald Sutherland had a few lines and exited early. No one else could act. There was only one attractive woman in the whole movie - and she was on for 2 scenes.None of this would matter if the action had been jaw-dropping. But it wasn't. So 2 stars. Should have got something else.
