Absolutely outstanding action let down by mediocre plotting and acting
If you're an action film fan watch this. The action is superb and I mean it. Very long sequences done as single shot action and its superb, violent and bonkers at the same time. Some of the camera movements are off the chart.
However, the film is let down by some dodgy acting, a bit of cheap cgi, way overlong in the 'dramatic plot' bits and ,strangely, some dodgy camera work in them.
Shot as a 'one take' movie but the director just gave up in the drama segments not even hiding the 'cuts' and saved his budget for the action. And what action it is!
Grab a beer or two and watch it for the truly sublime and, yes, bonkers action.
I hope action fans discover this and ignore the seriously low rating.
This is a film for action fans.
