Reviews
I  was glad to see Jason Statham in this film. This was the perfect  opportunity for him to showcase his acting talent in a rather dark,  dramatic role than the usual action-hero roles that he's better known  for...and he made good use of it. This one is quite different from the  usual 'a guy seeking redemption' story. It is in many ways an  introspective kind of film and it does bring out some emotions and make  you feel for the characters portrayed by the lead actors (If you're into  these kinds of films, of course). If you're expecting this to be  another of his high-octane action-thrillers, you may end up  disappointed. But if you're looking forward to watch him in a more  existentialist role in a well written crime-drama with a few bits of  action in it, you'll definitely like it.
