I was actually looking forward to this film. Older European man in Asia looking for payback, hong kong setting and guns blazing. Seems OK, right? But no.
I am surprised this one is rated so high. Pretty standard revenge story with a failed attempt at being original, dull main character and clumsy action scenes. I can enjoy stylish "asian" action, with dramatic slow-mo gun fights and If I was fourteen I might have enjoyed this one, but... come on. Failed drama, failed action. Halfway in I just lost interest in the old geezer's quest for revenge. One of those movies you're better off passing.
