Decent, but doesn't even come near Raid 2
1 March 2015
To start, I would say that the movie was well made with good acting and above par choreography. The story was somewhat believable and pretty simple. So no plot holes as such.

The thing that's bugging me is that a lot of promotional posters said that the action sequences rival Raid 2. In my opinion that's a utterly false comparison. And someone who feels its true needs to watch Raid 2 again. The action is zero in the 1st hour of the film. There are some very good sequences but very few in number.The final fight was a let down too. The hero doesn't fight even 1 of the bad guys properly through out the film.

The raid franchise consists of 2 epic films with unmatched action choreography ever, IMHO. Comparing a movie with that is going to generate interest nonetheless.

To sum it up this was a little below my expectations as The Man form nowhere features in my all time favorite action flicks and i was expecting it to at least live up to the expectation.

Watch it as a decent action flick and don't expect too much form it.
