Not Oscar worthy. But!!!

Rating: 7/10 (15 December 2019)

I love this film. Yes it is bold and brash and absolutely ridiculous at times in typical John woo style but it does it so so well in my opinion. Dougray Scott delivers as a wonderfully odious villain and Thandie Newton is great as the charismatic thief with a "conscience". This film is just balls out escapism at its best, a simple story told well with loads of action with the typical woo flair. Best accompanied with plenty of wine
