Trying for the John Wick vibe?


It didn't occur to me until the end when Ava was chasing Simon, the music that was playing reminded me of something and a lightbulb went off! The music is like John Wick type soundtrack. Then you think about how "Management" makes the decisions on the hits, the phone calls and secret codes, the bloody hand to hand, it's all John Wick vibe. But a poor B movie version, and they could have done less with all the family drama.

BTW, the Simon (Colin Farrell) character is funny. His confidence doesn't exactly match up with his skills. Had a hard time with Grandpa Duke, basically fought Ava to a draw in the end, but then said.. "If I see you again, I will effing kill you..." LOL! I know they're all assassins and the fights are made to show that Duke and Ava are highly skilled. But the Duke fight was so bad. Why don't Hollywood call in Hong Kong film makers when they want to choreography old men fighting? LOL! Cause Hollywood can't do it. This is not as bad as Deniro in the Irishman though. LOL!
