Featured reviews
The film gets a little slow but that makes sense because it's clearly inspired by old westerns like Shane and Hondo (two films with one cowboy guy protecting a woman and child in a dangerous west environment).
I'm a big Neal McDonough fan. Grew up watching Band of Brothers with my dad and later enjoyed him as a baddie in Walking Tall and Arrow. He was also in Resident evil, which I just saw and actually liked.
It was cool to see him be this western hero in a modern world.
Cinematography was awesome.
Loved the score.
Fun cast.
Some brilliant and fun action scenes (one with a spoon in a man's neck).
My only gripe is it was marketed as more of an action film and it's really a slow burn, which I do like a lot, but I can see action-fan boys and people who want carnage and gore throughout the run time to be a little let down.
Not at all as bad as these reviews are stating. Just a little slow but big payoff.
7/10.

I hardly believe what I see, Neil Mc Donough, a usual supporting villain character, a heir of Lee Van Cleef, Robert Wilke, John Doucette, Skip Homeier, Jack Lambert.... So what a surprise for me to see him as an anti hero role, a professional killer wounded after a "contract" and then helped by a woman - a priest - who has "trouble" with mobsters. The following is very predictable, you can foresee it miles ahead. But it works for this good little B crime movie without any pretention. So please watch it as it is, don't expect too much, it is not a film destined to festivals, only streaming platforms and DVD racks. Some kind of modern times western with McDonough playing Jason Statham or JCVD as he was in the nineties.
This was fun. I grew up on western films and war flicks and this was definitely inspired those. Old school hero and some great action scenes but definitely felt we needed more Tommy Flanagan!
Loved the score, the look of the film and the acting was awesome.
Decent film to catch, especially if you're a fan of the genre.

A couple of reviews here are bashing other reviewers for giving this movie a 1 or 2, but I don't know what they're smoking; this movie is absolute garbage. The plot is utter rubbish, the dialogue trash, and the music score awful. Most importantly, it's listed as an action movie, but there is like one real action scene in the entire movie, at the very end, and it's terrible. Do yourself a favour and don't waste an hour and half of your life on this movie. I really wish I could redo the time I lost on this one...
