Hostile Takeover is a hyper-stylized, kinetic thrill ride full of savage action, mystery and humor. Think "John Wick" meets "Crank", with a dash of "Burn After Reading" -- a brutal, wildly entertaining examination of burnout, betrayal, and what happens when the city's most efficient killer decides to find a littler inner peace... and ends up starting a war.

Ready Steady Cut

You hire Michael Jai White to throw a mean side kick, look cool, and probably take his shirt off at some point, and on this most essential level, Michael Hamilton-Wright’s Hostile Takeover ticks all the boxes.

Rated: 2/5

This movie is very unserious and full of mistakes. Every person is bitching and unintelligent. The Choreography is lacking impact, every punch feels weak and it somehow feels like nothing is really happening. Everything is pointless, If you like movies with attention to details then don't watch this movie. CGI blood is used alot and then poof, a second later and its gone like nothing happened. Oh and it's really badly writing, super cringe. The movie itself is a bad joke just like the plot itself.

Michael Jai White needs to be recognized for a lot of his hard work. I will always be a fan of his, it doesn't matter what movie come out with or if people gave it a low rate. He puts a lot of effort and heart into his work. And I will always enjoy all his movies.
