It's not a great movie in the sense of story and ground breaking.

What it is it's an awesome action movie that makes up for story by giving the audience what they want... unadulterated violence that is both creative and fun. The movie is surprisingly funny where it makes up for the story itself.

The cast is just amazing. With each character, no matter small, is interesting. If the movie has more success, it would be absolutely amazing to see each character get their own movies.

Again, it's not going to garner Oscars or serious discussion but if you want to be entertained this movie will check all the boxes.

This is a fun little movie, isn't very original nor very memorable but fun while it is on. To be clear, this had to be filmed as a movie not intended to go to theaters but it was better than expected. Dave Bautista, while looking odd, does a great job as he finally gets an action movie where he is the lead man

The plot is simple, introducing zany comic book type assisins and then killing them off in incresingly comically violent ways. Ben Kingsley and a Catholic priest are the comic relief and surprisingly that works really well, some good laughs. Scott Adkins and Terry Crews have smaller roles but always bring something fun to their performances.

I also appreciated the excessing grenade use in this film. I feel in real life hitmen would use grenades instead of exposing themselves for a gunfight. It is a movie of course, but eveyrone uses grenades first, and I approve of that.

You don't have to go to a theater to see it, but definately watch it when it comes to home video or streaming as it is a fun watch. There was scattered applause when the credits rolled and others seemed to generally like it.

When I saw the trailer for this thing my immediate thought was: "This looks really stupid... but, it might be MY KIND of stupid." And boy, was I right on the money! I take a risk on movies like this from time to time, fully expecting that I'm either going to love it or hate it. Cocaine Bear, for example, I freakin hated. This movie? I had a fantastic time from start to finish.

It's fun, it's action packed, it doesn't waste time. If you haven't seen the trailer, I wouldn't even watch it, because you'll probably enjoy it even more going in blind. It's a stylish, over the top action thriller with a script that got me to genuinely LOL a few times. That's a rare enough thing.

It's also Dave Bautista's first outing as a leading man. He's proven himself a competent performer in the Dune films and a few other supporting roles. I wouldn't call him a great actor, but he's a hell of a lot better than The Rock is ever going to be.

Sadly, The Killer's Game is getting no traction at the box office. Want another reason to support it? It's exactly the kind of mid-budget movie that barely exists anymore. A 30 million dollar risk on something that's not a sequel or established IP. Those are precisely the kind of films that deserve your money, especially if you're tired of the bleak, planned universe dystopia and rehash mill our theaters have become.

This is, frankly, the summer movie more people should've seen instead of Deadpool & Wolverine. If you like cheesy, fun, action fare like "Shoot Em Up" And "Bullet Train", you should definitely give The Killer's Game a watch.

"The Killer's Game" is an action-comedy film that had to go through a series of changes in development before eventually reaching post-production. Negotiated initially by Broad Green Pictures in 2015, the project changed hands a couple of times until STXfilms acquired it in 2018. The film was supposed to star Jason Statham but Statham left so Dave Baptista had to come in as the lead.

The story follows Joe Flood, a veteran hitman diagnosed with fatal diseases. Desperate to avoid such a painful death, Joe arranges for an assassin to kill him, but after placing the kill order, he finds out his diagnosis was a mistake, and he is healthy. However, the kill contract cannot be repealed now, and Joe becomes a target for other highly professional assassins, many of whom he taught himself. The plot follows Joe's fight for survival as he attempts to outrun his pursuers, reflecting on a life as a killer. Down the road, he finds out who set up the false diagnosis and uncovers a deeper conspiracy.

The film merges scenes of intense violence with humor while maintaining an over-the-top, comic book-like aesthetic. The storyline is not new, and it's predictable, but it's fun to watch because of the action sequences, visuals, and over-the-top characters.

The fight scenes, choreographed by J. J. Perry from a background in stunt coordination, are particularly praised for visceral impact and creativity. The movie has loud lighting and fun camera work, adding to the overall stylized view and blended sense of dark humor inside the action.

Perhaps the highlight of the movie is Dave Bautista as Joe Flood. So well-known for his stoic, humor-filled character, Bautista imbues vulnerability into the man, who is struggling to come to terms with his impending death while trying to protect a loved one, Maize, played by Sofia Boutella.

This chemistry adds emotion to the otherwise action-heavy plot. Ben Kingsley, who plays the role of mentor to Joe, manages to bring gravitas with wit in his scenes. Even when some characters, like Maize, enjoy relatively less screen time, their presence is of immense importance to the emotional core of the movie.

Despite the simplicity of its plot, "The Killer's Game" is a movie that reflects on mortality, love, and redemption. Joe is a lifelong hitman who reflects on his violent past and a chance at redemption through his relationship with Maize. Most of all, there are even religious undertones in the movie, most especially in the last act, where a priest becomes an ally to Joe.

On the whole, "The Killer's Game" is an entertaining, very mild action film that does not contain deep philosophical insights but does entertain its viewers by the blend of humor and conceptualized action with very powerful performances.

I was expecting that JJ Perry having been in the army would actually know something about how weapons work, especially fragmentation grenades, but I was sadly disappointed. Also, as a stunt guy, I was thinking he could come up with cool but realistic stunts. But again, the stunts were contrived and defied physics.

I loved Bautista in GotG, Drax had depth, where Joe, an assassin, was BORING and predictable. Sofia's acting is a step up from David's, but still was a low for her. Again, this could have been the result of really poor directing.

Ben Kingsley and Alex Kingston consummate professionals that don't need a director, performed excellently. They accounted for a star by themselves.

Good concept bumbled by a over reaching stunt man.

Engaging Title Introductions

The Plot Has More Merit Than I thought

Summary: The Killer's Game is tough to review because of the direction Perry had in mind when he was going for (or so I perceive). It's a ridiculous spin to the action franchise with a lot of comedy, but yet still trying to hold heart, and to some degree, I quite enjoyed and felt it was good. It's got a faster pace, leaving little time for rest before the next exciting montage of death starts up, keeping you moving closer and closer to the finish line with each passing second. The plot that comes with it surprisingly has more depth than the trailers let on, primarily in the character development of Flood as he goes from ruthless assassin to maybe seeing more in life than the next kill to come. And those moments, even with a few of the antagonistic characters, even getting some more revelations to their persona. What I feel Perry got right is an almost video game/anime/movie hybrid, primarily because of the feel of the film in looks, movement, and even the transitions as each group is introduced. And though they all share a common blueprint, the characters feel very different in their approaches and presentation of their title cards. Even the untimely demises of many characters have that anime-esque ridiculousness to them, and though destructive and gory, they match the level of fun that went into this film I was expecting. What this boils down to is fun writing and a fun quality to this film that helps it stand out from the more intense films in this genre.

As for acting, everyone does their part well to make this crazy film come to life and not apologize for the colorful characters that have been recruited to make the hit. Kingsley gets a shout-out for his amazing work as the mentor, pulling his quality into thick accents, witty delivery of the lines, and that tough love parent that you like to counter the semi-innocence of Bautista's character. Klementieff is interesting in this film. Dropping much of her Mantis persona, the actress delivers rage-filled acid in each of her lines as she enacts her plans against the agent with little regret for what it takes. In contrast, Boutella manages to draw back on the evilness she normally conveys for someone more collected, sassy, and quite honestly delightful. A stunning display of love mixed with uncertainty, Boutella continues to wow us with her physical and verbal skills, stealing part of the show when she appears. As for the big man, Bautista may not have pulled out the unique factor this time, like his apocalypse movie, but the loveable oaf is still there and bent to new ways to feel different from Drax or his work in films like Stuber. The vulnerability mixed with simplified comedic delivery had me impressed with how he can juggle the two almost effortlessly, all while still showing impressive feats of strength that his muscles bring in full force. All in all, the dynamic he shares with much of the cast is the fantastic structure that does much to anchor the film from letting itself get too carried away.

DISLIKES:

Plot Still Needs More Finesse

A Tad More Violent Than I Had Hoped

Stupid To Many Degrees

Fight Choreography Is Both Creative And Yet Mediocre

Summary: Though there are fewer dislikes than other films, each one holds a bit more punch for me for this review. Despite being surprised by the depth of the plot, The Killer's Game does not quite go to the full level it needs to, given their efforts to make each killer unique. Perhaps it was too many gangs, or maybe just the direction; there was much more balance and time needed to make that effort worth the trip. Outside of the main quartet I mentioned in acting, others felt like bad guys in an anime arc that were gone before we even got a chance to know them. Does it provide variety? Sure, but at times, their intro scenes were more impressive than anything else, and such a flashy show might have more layers, but from the basic level of character use, it feels weaker than other movies. The movie is quite stupid on levels, too. Again, that felt intentional, but the stupidity sometimes gets a little out of hand and disrupts the scene for me, which left me chuckling but annoyed at the consistent comedic relief without the epic tension that films like John Wick can execute better. While this again adds dark humor and cartoon-like buffering, it just wasn't balanced in the best lights it could have been.

As for the fights, well, they are okay for viewers like me. Wick might be violent, but the scenes are connected with good choreography, excellent move-sets, and usually edgy combat that has you cheering in your seats. The Killer's game matches some of this quality in the opening moment but then diverges into quick montages of very forced-feeling fights. Bautista's movements almost look too practiced, and the fights are very mundane outside of the finishing moves that are quite savage to the point several audience members had their own commentary. It picks up at the end and brings some more boom, but even these still pale to other films with much more excitement and suspense without the continuous comedic interludes. And for those who have a low tolerance for extreme violence and language, this movie should be skipped. Wick is violent, yes, but this movie exceeds those films with much more gruesome displays of death, many painting some part of the set in the familiar crimson.

The VERDICT:

Overall, The Killer's Game is a movie that is entertaining in the respect of ludicrous amounts of comedy and action trying to find cohabitation. A fast pace mixed with some diverse profiles, the movie is so many things in one, throwing everything at Bautista to fight and doing it in that Drax-ish, style. To my surprise, there were more levels to it than I had expected, they just needed more time to maximize the potential and not feel too stupid or wasted in some quick finish. Aside from that, there are plenty of action scenes, and to some level, they have their edge and style that I think will be awesome for some people, again with some of the more unique finishers that are reserved mostly for video games. However, the rest of the fights often lack the finesse, complexity, and edge that other films have done so much better, one part due to the comedy aspect, while the other part might just be editing or limitations of time. Either way, the movie is okay. For spectacle and sound effects, a theater visit will make this the best experience; however, this movie may be best watched at home, given the other limitations I found with it.

My scores for The Killer's Game are: Action/Comedy/Thriller: 6.5-7.0 Movie Overall: 6.0.

This year's "The Fall Guy" was a tribute to stunt people and their essential role in filmmaking. "The Killer's Game" is an unintended rebuttal.

Director JJ Perry is best known as the stunt coordinator for the John Wick series. Even though this film steals liberally from the Wick films, "Kill Bill" and others in the genre, "The Killer's Game" is still dull, dreary, derivative dreck.

Joe Flood (Dave Bautista - primarily known as pro wrestler) is an assassin with a conscience. (He only kills people who really, really deserve it. Good guy. Heart of gold.) Joe meets Maize (Sofia Boutella), a lithe lead dancer, who is performing onstage when Joe assassinates his target in the theater. Talk about meet-cute. Joe rescues Maize from the mayhem that follows. "Beauty and the Beast" ensues. But wait! Joe's doctor tells him he has an incurable brain disease and will be dead in three months. So of course Joe decides to take out a contract on himself. But wait, again! Even though the tests were performed by three different labs, there was a mix-up. Joe isn't sick after all. Can the contract be cancelled? Can we keep our brains from exploding? Can people with a functioning cerebral cortex possibly become engaged with this storyline, which is equal parts lazy and ridiculously implausible?

Even the premise of this film is, to put it as kindly as possible, an appropriation. The premise of cancelling a contract on oneself was first seen in 1931's "The Man in Search of His Murderer." 1978's "The Odd Job" and Warren Beatty's 1998 film "Bulworth" follow the same well-trod path.

There are a few interesting flourishes along the way, mostly centered on the odd collection of killers who congregate to fulfill the contract, all of them dead set on murdering Joe. This menagerie includes a flamenco dancer, lesbian strippers, a K-Pop gang and, best of all, two Scottish brothers whose wildly profane but comprehensible conversations are translated into highly sanitized English subtitles.

After setting up its rickety premise, the film is basically an unending series of set pieces, none of which add anything to the story. By the end, I understood the killer's game: clearly, he was intent on murdering my brain cells.

The Killer's Game delivers straightforward action with enough entertainment to keep you watching, though it's nothing revolutionary. The fight scenes are decent, but not on par with the gold standard that is John Wick. The cast of quirky assassins that span the world add some fun, almost like they're from Street Fighter just with less depth. Dave Bautista does his usual tough-guy routine, and while he's good, it's familiar territory for him.

The concept-an assassin accidentally putting a hit on himself due to a medical mistake-is unique, but the execution is predictable. There are laughs and a few solid action moments, but nothing that really stands out.

Overall, it's a fun and gory film that's enjoyable if you're looking for an easy, action-filled watch. Just don't expect it to leave a lasting impression.

Genre: Cheesy action movie.

Acting: trash Script: trash Fight scenes: mid Cast: pretty good Plot: has potential

I don't know how else to put this. This movie is trash. I get it, it's not suppose to take its self seriously. Light humor. Crazy bloody fight scenes. Like a mix between John Wick and Bullet Train. Except it misses the mark... big time. It got close for sure. But the writing is just soooo terrible. It's not funny. It's cringy. It's like the shadow of what a movie is supposed to be. It has the right pieces but it lacks its own unique character. Like some one dancing to no music, it's awkward. Now it'll get by because of the big name actors. Not as a good movie... as another Hollywood money grab.

I do have to get it out of the way now, yes this movie is very much inspired by the John Wick films. However, this film is definitely more fun and comedic. I was genuinely surprised by the chemistry between characters, it felt believable. The action was over the top, the film definitely feels almost like a comic. Its very fun and genuinely creative with it's action. I'm already seeing low reviews, but I feel like people are taking the film too serIously. This film knows exactly what it is, it isn't pretentious.

Also it's the perfect run time, bring back movies that aren't needlessly 3 hours. Thank you.

I'll say at least this for Dave Batista, he has great comedic timing. Is that enough to make him a leading man. All I can say is i already miss the muscle mass.

The strange part was watching Batista fake what he use to do on a nightly basis in a wrestling ring. I mean, despite losing 75 libs he's still a big man who stands out in a crowd making it far too easy to notice when a stuntman is being use for a simple body slam. Hollywood has tamed the animal.

On a positive note However, the action was good and the movie was funny. I thought it was perfect that the movie knew what it was to the point that it poked fun at itself. That just gave it the charm needed to cover up whatever it was missing

A cool watch.

I don't know if this makes sense, but while watching this, it felt like a bad knock-off version of a much better, non-existent movie. And even though it was theatrically released, it feels very much like a streaming movie. It doesn't have that cinematic feel. Luckily, I didn't have enough time to see this at the theater.

I like Dave Bautista, but he's not a leading man. Every aspect of this movie feels subpar and bland. The dialogue made me cringe. The fake-looking CGI blood spatter made me laugh. The useless romance plot made me sleepy.

But if it at least has good action, then maybe..... nope, it's alright at best. And there is one embarrassing shot where his stunt double was so glaringly obvious. I laughed so hard.

And there is a ridiculous amount of stupidity. So many things that make no sense. It requires full brain shutdown.

J. J. Perry's action-packed thriller "The Killer's Game" delivers a high-octane spectacle that's as brutal as it is heartfelt. Dave Bautista shines as Joe Flood, a top hit man grappling with his mortality and seeking a bittersweet redemption.

The film's premise, while familiar, is executed with a refreshing twist. Flood's decision to take his own life is driven by a profound sense of despair, adding a layer of emotional depth to the otherwise violent narrative. Bautista's performance is raw and powerful, capturing Flood's internal turmoil with a surprising degree of nuance.

Perry's direction is nothing short of exhilarating. The action sequences are choreographed with precision and intensity, leaving the audience breathless. The film's visual style is gritty and uncompromising, reflecting the brutal world Flood inhabits.

Beyond the action, "The Killer's Game" explores themes of love, loss, and the consequences of a life lived on the edge. The relationship between Flood and his girlfriend adds a layer of emotional depth to the story, making his quest for redemption all the more compelling.

While the plot might be somewhat predictable, the film's execution is top-notch. The supporting cast, including the talented Elle LaMont, adds depth and nuance to the story.

"The Killer's Game" is a must-watch for fans of action-packed thrillers.

Overall the movie is nothing special but I do love a good ol' fashion action flick. And it definitely serviced that need.

Story wise it was very mediocre. It's not gonna win any academy awards but it's serviceable for the movie. They tried to insert some comedy into it, but it didn't work out well.

Production value was just okay again with nothing special. I will see the fight choreography was good.

The characters are okay. Dave Batista not a good actor and he will never be a good actor unfortunately. So his performance didn't make the movie suffer. Terry Crews was really funny in it with his sidekick.

All in all the best part of this movie was the action. It was a jam packed full of it. If you like a good action movie, you're gonna like this one.

Awful movie which tries way too hard by people with no talent. The story doesn't make sense at all but they try and be quirky with it which decreases the charm and view ability. Batista does disgusting things but expects to retain sympathetic status. Doesn't work. Doesn't make sense. I mean you can be a cold killer but if you do it with an amount of style and grace you can get away with it but nobody in this movie does that. Maybe Bendy Gandhi does but barely. Give this a miss and watch a Tarantino or Scorcese movie instead. Charmless, unfunny, poor story, poor dialogue, stupid, insults everybody's intelligence, ticks all the boxes.

Cheesy Effects Drag Down The Killer's Game

I went into The Killer's Game with moderate expectations, hoping for a fun action flick. Unfortunately, the special effects turned out to be the weakest link, pulling me out of the story more often than not. The CGI felt rushed, overly cartoonish, and, at times, painfully cheesy-almost as if it was a low-budget effort done in a hurry. Who did the effects Cnris Pratt?

While the cast delivered some decent performances, the effects made it difficult to take the film seriously. Blood slashes lacked realism, fight scenes appeared overly staged, and there were moments where the green screen work was distractingly obvious. It's disappointing because the premise had potential, but the execution didn't deliver on the immersive experience one hopes for in an action movie.

Overall, The Killer's Game is a forgettable entry in the genre. It's hard to recommend this one unless you're in the mood for some unintentional laughs.

This movie pleasantly surprised me. I really did not think it was gonna be good. I just thought it was gonna be another one of those punch shoot them up movies Scott Atkins does actually had a pretty good script. Dave Batista was excellent in it and so was Sophia something the girl from? The rebel moon.

The whole cast actually didn't really well and yes, there is a lot of action in it and yesterday is a lot of fighting and it don't get me wrong and still a karate martial arts movie that goes over the top but this is one of the better ones by the way, they Batista is not a bad actor at all it's not as good as the Rock I think he's better than John Cena cause I've seen a lot of really good U.

A rather underwritten premise made worse by lots of fake CGI blood, soulless/wooden acting by the lead, lack of chemistry, hollow and rushed romance, bad dialogue (and even worse one-liners), music choices, and more!! From the worst solution to a health issue I've seen on film, to assassins arriving and dying in a line! Almost like lemmings. It does have a lot of known actors, but wastes all of them (specially Terry Crews and miss Sofia). It is at least well-shot and choreographed, with a couple of decent stunts (the bikes) and one good kill.. but not enough for me to be able to recommend it to anyone, much less enjoy it. Not even for the fans of John Wick knock-offs..

I just got done watching The Killer's Game (2024) and I had a good time with it. This is also another great effort by Lionsgate after having a lot of garbage earlier this year.

Positives for The Killer's Game (2024): If you enjoy these type of action movie, then you'll definitely have a good time with this movie. Batista was very good as the main character of Joe Flood and he's one of those wrestler-to-actors who has started to really come into his own to the point where he is easily everyone's favorite wrestler-turned-actor. I also though had good chemistry with Sofia Boutella's Baize in this movie. I was also shocked to see drew McIntyre in this movie and while it wasn't a big role, it was still very noticeable to me. And finally, the action sequences are a lot of fun and there is a good amount of humor in the movie.

Negatives for The Killer's Game (2024): The movie's script is filled with a lot of cliches from other movies. The execution of this script is also very generic and it felt like Lionsgate just wanted to put out an easy enough action comedy movie for everyone to like.

Overall, I had some fun with The Killer's Game (2024) while also being disappointed by how generic the movie was with the execution of it. I still do recommend this to action movie fans.

It's garbage. Well made garbage, but just garbage. No one involved seems to what to be there. The CGI blood just sucks, the action set pieces are mediocre but at least are hard R rating.

I cannot express my dislike for the dialogue and characterization of this movie. Ben Kingsley should lose his Oscar retroactively for his silly Jewish character that belongs on Family Guy.

Bautista looks just weird, like he had a lot of plastic surgery and then had about a gallon of Botox applied to his face.

Just garbage..and passionless garbage. A work of love that turns out to be garbage can be endearing, when everybody is clocked out you just keep wondering.... What are we doing here?

I don't understand how Sofia Boutella is top billed Dave Bautista is actually the star that shines so well; I love that they both were in Hotel Artemis years ago completely different characters though. Killer's Game is an awesome one man army where there's multiple hitmen/women a little bit like John Wick 3 where there's a bounty on the main character which makes for a fun story and only difference is romance mashed in well. Not sure why this has a 5.9 rating deserves better, to me the only flaw would be a couple times the dialogue off a little bit. I loved the entertainment value a lot! One other thing I had to bike home and got nauseous badly I managed decently enough.

I liked this movie, the match cuts in the montage going back and forth between assassination and their relationship were pretty inspired. I like how each murder team was introduced with their own theme.

I started to take Dave seriously when watching Blade Runner 2049. I expected his character to be a boss villain but instead he conveyed the subtle remorse of a replicant knowing he'd been found out and about to make a hard decision.

Early on I was actually really impressed to see Sofia get a chance to show her actual dance skills in a film. There's been several movies where I thought her performance was better than the film as a whole.

Between this and MI, I'd like to see Pom do more serious villainous roles. Honestly, I wanted 100% more of her character in the last Mission Impossible movie and was disappointed they didn't have her do more.

If you liked Smoking Aces, I think you'd like this as well although it has more humanity and less darkness.

If anything was a con, I'd say the 3rd act is where the movie goes into what was expected from a Hollywood action flick. It didn't detract from my enjoyment, but I was really ready for them to take a unique twist on the concept. Introducing an unexpected figure for this assassin to genuinely interact with that was not a cookie cutter sterotype was the high point of the final plot.

If you've ever wondered what happens when you take the worst parts of every action movie from the last 20 years, throw in some Tarantino-wannabe dialogue, a sprinkle of Guy Ritchie's gangster banter, and then slap on a Squid Game-style setup, The Killer's Game is the monstrosity that emerges.

The acting- wow, it's bad. Dave Bautista looks like he's just here for the paycheck (or maybe to pay off some mysterious debt?). Sofia Boutella exists in the movie, but I wouldn't call it acting. Ben Kingsley? A legend, but here, he's reduced to delivering cringey one-liners with the enthusiasm of a man regretting his career choices. The entire cast feels like they were forced into this at gunpoint.

The script feels like it was written by a 12-year-old who just watched John Wick, Pulp Fiction, and Snatch in one sitting and thought, "Yeah, I can do that!" Spoiler: No, they can't. The dialogue is so forced, so desperate to be edgy, that it physically hurts. There's no depth, no tension-just a parade of empty threats and jokes that don't land.

The fake blood looks like it was copy-pasted from an early 2000s Flash game, explosions that wouldn't scare a cartoon character, and fight scenes that are so choppy you can practically see the stunt wires.

One of the first indication that this movie would clearly have issues is right at the beginning when some unknown bodyguard get his throat sliced and the CGI blood look horrendous. I litterally said "yikes". Thanksfully its not as awfull all movie long but i think production companies should really take the time to invest in practical blood effects and prostetics because CGI blood rarely look good on screen.

That out of the way lets dive in the movie. So the plot is simple and i am totally fine with it. Give me just some brainless action movie and entertain me, thats all i ask. This movie does, but in a way get so deep into comedy territory, almost to a parody level, that i can see how it can turn off some peoples.

Dave Bautista plays the main character and a pretty simple, more grounded assassin. He is stoic, maybe a bit boring even, and despite being the lead, don't really stand out much.

But then all the bad guys going after him are so ridiculously over the top that it kinda clash too much with our lead. For exemple you have Scott Adkins and Drew McIntyre playing some Scotish "drunk/hooligans" brothers assassins and their accent are so over the top, matching their behaviors, it become comical.

I never had issue understand either Scott (wich does a lot of different accents in his role) or Drew in WWE. But here without subtitles, i wouldn't had. The movie was self-aware tough as it subtitle their dialogues by default. If you turned in as a fan of Scott Adkins, this is a very minor role, just be noticed.

But then you also have Marko Zaror (opposing Scott Adkins in Undisputed 3) and the guy deliver on the action but his character again is so over the top weird. Dancing to some music while fighting.

I could go on and mention a bunch more, you get the picture. This is an action comedy but in a very absurd extreme way and its not the type that would please everyone. Personally tough i enjoyed it for what it was.

You have to turn your brain off completely, throw out all the realism about explosives and physics, and preferably already be tipsy of a few beers prior to starting it, and then there is definately entertainement to be made.

But this is no John Wick, Nobody, Beekeeper or Kate, just to name a few.

Side note. I have no idea why this movie is still not available in Canada (precesily Quebec in my case) being a Lionsgate release. Its been out on digital for a while in the US but i can't find it anywhere. I had to get really out of my way to see it. I was tired of waiting.
