Rated: R - Runtime: 110 min
Genre: Action | Crime | Drama | Thriller
Great action movie, and for any of you that are Wahlberg fans in my estimation this is one of the best movies in which we have seen him in some time. I was pleasantly surprised with the content, and the acting in the movie. So many times we see a movie with a lot of action but simply lacking in plot. This movie draws you into the story in so many ways and keeps your attention throughout.
Delivering plenty of action from the very outset of the film and continuing throughout, ending with the unusual ending of the good guy turned bad guy gets away with the crime in a very unusual manor. I didn’t like the scene where Beckinsale gets the crap beat out of her (unlike the Beckinsale we’ll see shortly in Underworld:Awakening), but it’s the part she had... And she played it well. You will enjoy it all from start to end! Guaranteed!
My Rating: 4 Mugs of Guinness - aka; 4 Stars for those not enjoying the better life with Irish Ale.
