Okay, to sum it up, this has to be one of the worst movies of 2018. When your hero(es) are murderous killers one moment, and twenty seconds later they show remorse for the wrong things. Who writes this stuff? Is there really someone funding these movies?
The acting is weak, the storyline is very thin. It's basically a road movie about moving from point A to point B in search for a loved one. And of course, on this road trip, the bad people show up and make you feel like you are in an episode of The Walking Dead. People fighting to dead for a jerrycan of gas. One of the lowest points, for me, around 1 hour into the movie, when one character, who seems like a transgender bad ass, bad mouth kid, suddenly bursts out in tears about dealing with a situation. Rolling my eyes for most of the time during the movie. Jason Statham is your typically nerd person that desperately needs approval from his father-in-law and evolves in a true hero that can shoot without aiming, drive like the best car racer, be an outstanding doctor and is a smart as Mac Guyver. And of course, during the road trip, the guys bond and start to like each other. But to top everything off, the final plot of the movie is the worst it could ever be. Was there no more money to shoot a proper ending? Did it not make the cutting board? We will never know. But it sucks like hell (excuse the language).
This kind of movie is really not possible in 2018 anymore. We need a good script, good acting and a plot twist that keeps you wondering about a movie. Not some lame movie where dramatic music is trying to cover up the bad acting and the boring dialogue. I guess movie producers think that the public is still waiting for that next action hero that saves the day.
