Review of Mechanic: Resurrection (2016) by Frances H — 20 Jul 2017

This sequel that no one asked for to the 2011 film is easily one of the worst action films I have watched so far this year and that is despite me liking previous films with Jason Statham in the lead role.

Yes some of the cast is decent but they are given little to do thanks to an incredibly cliche ridden script, the action despite a few okay moments is also dull while being undermined by abysmal CGI (where the $40m budget went is anyone's guess) while the plot and narrative are utterly predictable while also being snooze inducing.
