It is not a shoot ’em up. Either way, could use more action and plotting lacks refinement.

Overly simplistic plot and themes, lacks style, but is otherwise not a bad lighthearted action film despite the serious subject matter.

Starts strongly enough. Relies on the cast to hold it together. Final act could use better writing and way better execution. Meh.
