Call it what it is - a half-decent action movie that you'll never remember
23 April 2021
Lots of reviews with devastatingly fierce criticism and they're not wrong. Other reviewers say it's not bad at all, and they're not wrong either. Let agree on one thing: this film won't make the cut at the Oscars. In fact, it will probably not be remembered at all. But that doesn't mean that you should ignore this film or that it's not good entertainment. If you think about it - pick an action movie, any one, and you'll find something cringe-worthy about it. This is no different. But we're not really watching this because you're a professional movie critics or because you were actually weighing between watching this or The Colour Purple. You knew what you chose and why, and this will honestly not disappoint. Good action, reckless near-immortal heroes, predictable villains and lots of senseless action. That's why! Take the movie for what it is. It's a painless way to spend the next 1h30min and although you won't really remember the details of the film, tomorrow - somewhere - you'll have a vague memory that it wasn't half bad. Finally, if there is one advice I'd like to give to the director of this film it would be to not make a sequel - this is as good as this story-line can get and it can only go downhill from here.
