Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Awatchable, but dull action flick with not enough body count to satisfy the average mixed martial arts fanboy.

rotten:
This is as stale as Tuesday's Phad Thai, from its exhausted mythos of the surgically efficient, omnipotent hit man to the training scenes in which Joe explains the trade to the new guy, to the inevitable betrayals of the third act.

rotten:
Cage is believable as the brooding lone-wolf gunman, but the "hit man screwing himself by growing a conscience on his final kill" ploy needs to be put down for good.

rotten:
Tediously monotonous.

rotten:
While the film includes several exciting, creatively shot action scenes, the drama is otherwise so shopworn that the violent climax is a relief.
