An all-action Willis adventure vehicle.

Rating: 6/10 (3 May 2020)

Well there certainly isn't anything original about this, but it is hard to hate a film when a decent cast are clearly all having a good time! Bruce Willis is "Frank", a bored man who only seems to get any enjoyment from life when he has a conversation with the girl (Mary-Louise Parker) at his pension office whom he calls when his cheques are wrong! However, things all start to heat up a bit when his former life comes back to haunt him and he has to assemble his old team to fight off this state-of-the art would-be assassin. The story is really rather formulaic, but there are some fun lines for the star, and some engaging contributions from Karl Urban, and an on-form pairing of John Malkovich & Ernest Borgnine. Helen Mirren and Brian Cox don't quite fit in - she looks really quite out of place, and his accent is pretty terrible. It's all about Willis - and if you are fan, then there is plenty here to enjoy.
