Final Score

For action fans it's a winner. Hot pacing and action. No "Arty-farty" plot. Just straight up no mixer. No goofy politics. Just good vs bad. And lots of action.

Enjouy.

A British-American action thriller; A story about an ex-soldier who has to employ all his skills to try and rescue his kidnapped niece and help foil a plan by the kidnappers for mass destruction. This is a fun, noisy, brash, muscular action flick that bears some resemblance to the film 'Die Hard.' Bautista looks comfortable in his avuncular role; the sentimental moments work nicely. He looks easily capable of taking on the terrorists so the tension doesn't run high. It has a fairly predictable storyline, over-choreographed fighting scenes, and clichéd dialogue at times, but it is a handsome production - the villains' audacious plot and their unrelenting menace make the clock run down pleasingly.

No offence to the big man, who I think is actually a good actor and plays to his strengths, but usually any film with a Wrestler as the lead I'm not watching ( minus the Rock ) But this works, it is what it is and doesn't try to be anything different..

Give it your time and you'll not be wasting it

Action films are often a bit far-fetched, but are we really supposed to believe that West Ham reached the European Cup Semi Final?

Good story, great directing, decent action, perfect length and pace, adequate humor - most of the time, and mainly good acting, although Bautsita should have shown better combat fighting instead of sorrowful sighs when getting hit. And the chicken and life story conversation with Brosnan whilst his daughter was caught was a little lame. A fun lazy-day watch nevertheless. It's a 7/10 from me.
