Rick Bentley Tribune News Service The simplicity in director Michael Caton-Jones' tale about a man looking to redefine his concept of right and wrong is powerful enough to carry the movie. Rated: 3/4 Dec 6, 2018 Full Review Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times Dreyfuss sinks his teeth into his handful of scenes, while Bisset hits different but equally effective tones in her moments. The underrated Janssen, striking as ever, does her usual stellar work. Rated: 3.5/4 Dec 6, 2018 Full Review Frank Scheck Hollywood Reporter Nothing in the proceedings rings remotely true unless you've been weaned on a steady diet of soulful hit men movies. Dec 6, 2018 Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com …the action is short and not particularly distinguished, but there’s just enough meat on the bones to suggest why such a strong cast was attracted to this project… Rated: 3/5 Jul 26, 2024 Full Review Jeremy Aspinall Radio Times Despite a familiar "ageing assassin" plotline, director Michael Caton-Jones delivers mood and menace, and is well served by Simon Boswell's bluesy score. Rated: 3/5 Feb 29, 2024 Full Review Javier Ocaña El Pais (Spain) What ends up blurring the final feeling that leaves Asher is its outcome: equivocally open and without the courage necessary to leave grounds.

Travis W The best and most reliable crypto recovery expert service for me ever goes to CYBER GENIE HACK PRO! Wow; these guys are so good at their job and their customer service relationship is so friendly and reliable. I made a huge error with a transaction at work, sending $68,000 worth of BTC to the wrong wallet address. Tension arose and I was literally shaking even while I searched online for a possible solution. I contacted the customer support of the wallet address provider but they said they couldn't help. I was about to pay my company money I never spent till I read something about CYBER GENIE HACK PRO Recovery services and I immediately contacted them. Because the money hadn't been withdrawn and contacted on time, they were able to retrace the transaction, and the money was credited back to the company's wallet swiftly. How would I have explained to the company I am innocent, CYBER GENIE saved my life. "http: // cybergeniehackpro (.) x y z " (+12)(5)(25)(12)(03)(91).. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/26/23 Full Review Cristian s La historia zafa, un asesino a sueldo ya entrado en años busca algo más de la vida y se enamora, no es nada que no se haya visto antes.. el problema fundamental de esta película es que por momentos es muuuuuy aburrida, entiendo que fueron por un enfoque más dramático y realista pero siento que exageraron en ese paso lento porque todo lo demás estaba ahí. Tal vez tendría que haber durado media hora menos. Una pena. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 11/14/23 Full Review Terry S Fantastic !! First-rate writing and performances all around. Don't miss this one. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 09/19/23 Full Review Liam D A well done slow paced neo-Noir Thriller that if action fans are expecting fast pace action thrills will be disappointed Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/08/22 Full Review Michael S Perlman has tried to make a career thinking being a big guy with a cool voice suites him for "tough guy" roles, but he just isn't believable. He needs to stick to voiceover work. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/23/21 Full Review Audience Member B- movie acting. Nonsensical casting. The bad guy gangsters dressed like they worked at trader joes. Below average storyline but my biggest beef is with whoever scored this thing. Seinfeld meets the good the bad and the ugly. This flick was pretty rough Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/05/21 Full Review Read all reviews
