Finally an unapologetic action movie

Rating: 9/10 (26 September 2015)

I didn't know what I was going to get when I bought this on BR. Sure Keanu is cool, some times, and so is Mr Dafoe. But what about the rest? What about the story? This isn't a sci-fi or fantasy movie where Keanu seems to pick good ones.
So, what is this movie? It's a 2010s version of a 1980s revenge/action movie. It gets bloody soon enough and stays that way till the end. You are not going to have much to "think" about. In fact the only thing I would constantly do while watching this was smiling with satisfaction for the action I was watching in a movie.
What was more impressive about it, was that at no point it felt boring, as many action movies do even when they have lots of...action.
Probably unnecessary warning, but, this is not for the young ones. It gets VERY violent and graphic, all the time.
I rarely place a movie in my favorite list, especially if it is an action movie, but oh my this is one good solid entertainment piece!
