Good action flick...


Good movie to watch if you want to see someone getting their asses kicked and bullets flying that actually hit their targets (but not that NYC Police, real life how they hit their targets).

It's an action movie. It's not meant to be realistic (again look up the recent shooting in NYC involving the police). Real shoot outs on the movie screen would last probably 2 minutes once guns are in hands and drawn. That's it, outcome decided.

Jason Stratham kicks ass. And he does it himself a lot of times, not the stand in.

The director and crew get great props for filming action in NYC. Great challenge. They tried a new technique here and there. Bus with SUV was an excellent stunt, because it shows what a "normal" natural car wreck looks like.. very natural. Excellent weapons and solid fights.

Plus it's New York City authentic.

I wish there had been slightly more character development in Anson Mount and the Chinese Triad leader. The whole idea of secreting a code with an 11 year old is kind of a stretch.. why do that.. I have to think thru that. Maybe I need to watch this twice.

I like to review how many crimes the "hero" committed in any action flick. Well, we have some first degree murders here of the corrupt detectives. Meh, a trifling detail of fiction.
