When all is said and done, I think it was a pretty ordinary film, based on a pretty ordinary book, whose author tends to just laugh the story off these days, as a means to make some money.🐭

I think it's one of Statham's best movies honestly. Kind of had that hard edged nihilistic vibe like Ronin did.

It def recalled Ronin , De Niro obviously but the look/feel of the film was a similar style (one guy was abit similar to Skarsgard) . I wonder if they tried to get Sean Bean instead of Statham or Owen (producers, film company, investors probably wanted Statham, but imagine Bean vs Owen how awesome that would've been )
