Statham back on form and about time !
Took a chance on this having vowed not to buy after seeing recent previous efforts from Statham but was glad I did. Story with a start , middle and end. Top notch stunts with a directorial slant which is quite refreshing.
See it , plain and simple. Well done film makers ! :))
Jason Statham shedding tears? What is this, a propper human drama? No Fear, this is the usual action vehicle for The Stath, but slicker than Killer Elite and Transporter , Playing an ex-cop turned cage fighter Statham shoots, punches and drives through New york to escape the Triads, Rusian mafia and the entire NYPD (whilst protecting a schoolgirl with an impossibly long safe combination in her head) it's loud, silly but very enjoyable and exciting stuff and if you can pretend you have not seen it all before it's a winner.
