In the new PC world of 2021 and beyond, testosterone and masculinity still made it to the big screen another time. As everyone was hoping this film delivers on action without the politics.

Jump in for an entertaining ride with the base of money truck heists, but this is really a revenge story. As usual Statham takes no prisoners and goes through everyone to get his man. He doesn't deviate from the classic action star you expect.

Not epic and the money truck storyline leaves something to be desired. But this will provide you with the action and emotion you need for the evening. And maybe a few days after.

Strong plot and promising action but falls short. Worth viewing if you like this type of film or Butler in general.

Butler's 'Tom Harris' and Fimmel's 'Roman' were strong, they provided high points. Bagheri's 'Parshand' didn't hit the mark.

Action scenes had moments of awesome. But odd timing of starts/stops during sequences made them confusing. Particularly when Roman rolls out of the vehicle during a pursuit scene.

Parshand pursuing main characters endlessly through the desert on a low range motorcycle was odd and not believable enough. Character did not seem ruthless. His scenes subtracted from the overall concept I was expecting and hoping for.

I was excited for this title and went on opening night! I love the two-sided Morbius struggling with good vs evil. A mysterious Marvel character. Lehto is the perfect fit. Give it a chance, you will enjoy the story and action. It will leave something to be desired...don't have lofty expectations.

I would love to have seen deeper into the main character, the action simplified, and movie made more graphic. With those tweaks and a resulting R rating you would have a 9/10 cult classic!
