Description

Arthur Bishop (Jason Statham) is a 'mechanic' - an elite assassin with a strict code and unique talent for cleanly eliminating targets. It's a job that requires professional perfection and total detachment, and Bishop is the best in the business. But when his mentor and close friend Harry (Donald Sutherland) is murdered, Bishop is anything but detached. His next assignment is self-imposed - he wants those responsible dead. His mission grows complicated when Harry's son Steve (Ben Foster) approaches him with the same vengeful goal and a determination to learn Bishop's trade. Bishop has always acted alone but he can't turn his back on Harry's son. A methodical hit man takes an impulsive student deep into his world and a deadly mentorship is born. But while in pursuit of their ultimate mark, deceptions threaten to surface and those hired to fix problems become problems themselves.

    Why oh why do iTunes not provide subtitles for all their movies and tv programmes. A totally callous and indifferent attitude toward their customers with hearing problems. So often do you buy a good film only to find out there are no subtitles. Even SKY have recognised thus and are now providing subtitles.

    I read the reviews and had mixed thoughts about getting the movie. However, as always, Statham delivered! If you like Statham - you will not be dissapointed!

    Rubbish film, very boring in many parts. Don't waste money on this.
  • All action, little story

    OK, I was not expecting great story from a Jason Statham film, but this was pretty bad. I think Statham has the makings of a good actor if he could only break out of the 'I'm a ruthless killer able to evade death' genre. Love to see him as a bady.

    Wish I'd rented instead of buying. It's a once only watch and although it's a lot better than transporter 3, it's a let down on expectations. Wouldn't watch again.
  • Action packed
