Probably the best action film ever

Rating: 10/10 (8 September 2010)

I have been waiting in anticipation of this film for a long time, and my expectations were getting pretty high. I wasn't let down. So much so that after seeing it the first time, I went to watch it again 3 days later, and will see it again before the month is out.
Don't be fooled by any negative reviews you may have read- these are written by people who completely missed the point and went to watch this film expecting something else. I can only think that these reviews and comments were written by people who walked in off the street to see this. For the fans, the people who have been waiting for this from the moment the project was announced, you will not be disappointed!
There is minimal plot, minimal character development, minimal emotion. If thats what you want out of a film, this isn't for you. What there is is fist fights, gun fights, knife fights, explosions, violence and gore in abundance. Quite literally some of the finest action scenes ever committed to film. I watched it with my mouth open! Although a sequel is rumoured, its hard to imagine how it could be bettered.
To sum it up simply, think Commando + Rambo on steroids and you might come somewhere close. Action fans, Stallone fans, Statham fans, Li fans- go and see this film, it may be the best one you ever see. To everyone else, don't see it if all you are going to do is miss the point then criticise it for not being something that it was never intended to be.
