My motivation to watch this movie was purely out of respect for the veteran actor Mr Denzel Washington. The movie thrilled and entertained adequately but it deeply lacked originality and finese. The plot centres around vengeance and justice with archetypal characters that just reeks of misconstrued stereotypes.

Hollywood was once guilty of depicting the black guy as the baddie who usually deal drugs and Latinos as loud month salsa movers, yet here we are reliving the condescending attitude of yet another misunderstood immigrant groups and these are the Russians.

Sure the black and Latino guy is the hero but at what price.... Denzel look for better thought out script that speak truth and not the distorted truth.
