Critics Consensus

With little to recommend beyond a handful of entertaining set pieces, Mechanic: Resurrection suggests this franchise should have remained in its tomb.

This is slightly better than the first film as it has the beautiful backdrop of Brazil in the beginning and Thailand throughout the rest of the film.

Professional assassin, Arthur Bishop the "Mechanic" is back from the dead. Bishop has retired and is secretly living in Rio de Janeiro under a new secret identity. All is well and Bishop is enjoying his retirement... until a courier discovers him and makes him a offer. "The principal I represent has an offer for you. He'd like 3 men killed. Each death must look like an accident. Your specialty I believe." - Courier The Courier threatens to reveal Bishop and end his new life. But Bishop refuses and escapes to Thailand. But when they kidnap his girlfriend, (Gina) Bishop has no choice, and he is forced to perform 3 near impossible hits, and make them look like accidents..... which stretches across the four corners in the world. "You have 36 hours to eliminate all the targets on this list or they will eliminate me." - Gina But there is more going on here, this is not just about contracts, this is a personal vendetta against Bishop and he has to play their game as a pawn in a chess match. But they have messed with the wrong man, the Mechanic will have his revenge and no one crosses the most dangerous hit man in the world and lives to tell about it. "Tell your principal it never pays to f**k with the dead."- Arthur Bishop I really enjoyed this movie. Jason Statham is back as The Mechanic and doing what he does best, kicking butt! This sequel is so much better than I was expected. A good fast paced story, lots of fun action, a great cast, a high body count, and a awesome ending. Lots of popcorn for this one. Cast - Jason Statham, Jessica Alba, Michelle Yeoh Tommy Lee Jones

After a season of sagas, revivals, and franchise hubris, the flatness of a Statham sequel inspires its own kind of trash nostalgia.

Mechanic: Resurrection aims to be no more satisfying than an oil change, and no one seems more bored by that prospect than Jason Statham.

Rated: 2/5

Chicago Reader

Digital photography, with its limited ability to capture rapid movement, renders the close combat choppy and disorienting, and none of the kills is especially memorable.

Don't expect quality acting or narrative consistency or anything like that, but if you want to see a bunch of faceless bad guys get thoroughly [Jason] Stathamed... then you'll dig this one.
