A husband and father becomes the target of a vengeful drug lord.
Bob Odenkirk is absolutely outstanding here.
Director Ilya Naishuller and writer by Derek Kolstad offer a sharp film, with great action set ups, that's wonderfully filmed with credible looking locations. Connie Nielsen is slightly wasted that said there's a fantastic extended cameo from Christopher Lloyd. The supporting cast and solid including Michael Ironside and Colin Salmon. Aleksei Serebryakov as Yulian Kuznetsov is memorable.
With a great soundtrack it works perfectly until it goes into John Wick, Equalizer territory, that aside there's enough story tweaks to keep it fresh, in addition to echoing a modern Death Wish with a touch of A-Team and Macgyver to name a few it's a great ride.
Overall, a hard hitting fun must see action. Worth watching for Odenkirk alone.
