Long, boring, strung out with a plot that we've seen done better 1,000 times before.

Rating: 2/10 (7 June 2015)

This movie was very painful to watch. You'll find yourself waiting ages for action sequences that are very predictable and bland. Half of this movie is spent on small talk, and self reflection. Guess who the bad guys are? You guessed it, the Russian mob. Other than enemies filled with borderline racist stereotypes, you'll find yet another cliché ex-assassin turned regular guy, turned vigilante protagonist. This movie will continually, figuratively give you the middle finger by withholding information from the viewer, to the point where the movie won't even show you action sequences.
This film takes beyond what seems like an eternity, to even establish who the protagonist is, or anything about his past. Another thing this movie lacks in, is plot stability. You'll repeatedly find yourself asking, "who are these guys? Where is he? What is he even trying to accomplish?" Do not be afraid to get up to use the restroom or cook food without pausing the movie because you more than likely won't miss anything "important" because this movie lacks any important material. Even the soundtrack for the main action sequence is boring and repetitive; It is ALMOST literally (I'm not making this up) comprised of one single piano key being struck.
The sole reason I gave this movie 2 stars instead of 1, is because of Denzel Washingtons acting.
