Review of The Mechanic (2011) by Lenny R — 24 Jul 2011
Statham and Foster are solid as always (even if Arthur's a bit undercooked), and the action scenes are well directed, but it seems to be taking itself far too seriously, considering how preposterous everything is.
Simon West appears to be channelling Tony Scott at times (unnecessarily flashy interludes, etc), which is better than channelling Greengrass, I guess, but it's still distracing. Love the red E-Type.
