Film ● Mini-Review: Angel Has Fallen
This time, Mike Banning is framed and he has to run. Definitely the weakest of the trilogy.

Film ● Mini-Review: The Fable
A comedy about an assassin and his assistant told to lay low and not kill anyone. Could be funnier but still a solid film that is enjoyable.

Not a bad action film but it is more of the same.

Film ● Mini-Review: Cold Pursuit
Not a Taken clone but rather a vigilante-revenge black comedy. Enjoyable and recommended.

Film ● Mini-Review: Polar
The production itself isn’t bad, maybe tries a little too hard. Either way, the action scenes are not dazzling.

Film ● Mini-Review: Close
Bodyguard film that tries to be gritty but lacks plot and action.

Film ● Mini-Review: Peppermint
Tries to be a gritty vigilante-revenge film but execution is lacking. The action and logistics just feel awkward.

Film ● Mini-Review: The Commuter
Not intended to be a shoot ’em up but rather a mystery-thriller. Starts off a little trippy but becomes a little too predictable.

Film ● Mini-Review: The Equalizer 2
Instead of thugs, McCall is going up against skilled operatives like himself. Lacks the energy and emotional satisfaction of the first film.

Film ● Mini-Review: The Foreigner
Not supposed to be a shoot ’em up but it still works. Good to see Jackie Chan and Pierce Brosnan not be typecasted.

Film ● Mini-Review: Atomic Blonde
Highly stylized Cold War spy action-thriller. Looks good. Can use better signposting regarding the end.

Film ● Mini-Review: The Villainess
In some ways the Korean version of La Femme Nikita. Nicely shot revenge flick but perhaps predictable.

Film ● Mini-Review: Unlocked
Tries too hard with the conspiracy. Not bad but can use more and better action.

Film ● Mini-Review: Security
Clichéd premise, which is fine, but is unfortunately poorly executed in most respects.

Film ● Mini-Review: John Wick: Chapter 2
Tries a bit too hard to be cool but it does have lots of action. Good to see Wick use more weapons.

Film ● Mini-Review: London Has Fallen
Essentially the same as the first film but in a bigger setting. A solid follow-up which is rare considering that sequels are usually weaker.

Film ● Mini-Review: Survivor
Glaring stupidities are a turn-off. Wasted opportunity with Milla Jovovich and Pierce Brosnan.

Film ● Mini-Review: Taken 3
It is well-produced but is not particularly memorable. The first film is the best and the most satisfying.
