A run-of-the-mill action flick

Rating: 7/10 (22 May 2015)

Yet another James bond movie, without James Bond.
Don't get me wrong, i loved this movie, it has nothing that's gonna leave a awe-struck experience. I think i was mostly mislead by the name, expecting a thriller and ended up in a typical guns blazing action movie There are some scenes in the movie which is quite different, the murder of Colin Firth, the massacre by the agent and the way Samuel Jackson carries himself throughout the movie.
That's about it, everything else from a derelict family of the Hero who's father was once a famous guy, villain destroying the world, Hero topping the class and cliché saying "Just like your father" yeah that's all very heart-warming but that's what the movie is put together.
After all, what else would keep you engaged in the cinema hall, but this movie does all that with finesse rather than making a parody out of all that, which is much appreciated. You know from the start "All's well that ends well" so you don't have to worry even if the Hero falls from the sky without a parachute or faced with a truck load of armed men firing at him, he will emerge victorious.
All in all, expect nothing extraordinary and you will walk home more than satisfied
