Watch If
you've seen every other 'man with a past protects innocent' movie and need another fix, or you're a completist for Ric Roman Waugh's filmography.
Skip If
you expect anything beyond the most basic, predictable action movie tropes. Your time is worth more than this.
Best Consumed While
folding laundry, scrolling on your phone, or otherwise distracted. It's background noise, not cinema.
