On paper it's our kind of movie and my wife and I are both fond of Karen Gillan thanks to her Dr Who run. But even though it's right up our alley, I couldn't recommend this movie to anyone. It's supposed to be Jane Wick basically but it's laughably bad minus the laughs. I can't remember the last time that the direction and choreography stood out so horribly as it did in this one. Worst fight scenes I've seen since the early Golan Globus days.

This was bad. I mean, really bad. Had high hopes going in, but DAMN! I think the gross overuse of slow mo scenes added 1/2 an hour to this atrocity. And who knew gun dealers would only have a few guns at their disposal? Just ugh.

 

[WaywardFan]

Was very disappointed.

Watching it now.

Man was looking forward to this after seeing the trailer. Bummed to see these reviews.

 

[Dback Jon]

It wasn’t that bad. Cheesy yes. Horrible? Not in my opinion.

 

[Cheesebeef]

this did nothing for me.

 

[Covert Rain]

Really enjoyed it. My daughter who is not a big action person liked it too so that is saying something. Not even close to the same level as John Wick but this had some really good parts that were a blast. Great movie? Not by any stretch but I have seen way way worse movies this year. Try Cosmic Sin starring Bruce Willis. You will think this movie is a masterpiece.

Just watched this. No bueno.
