Film ● Mini-Review: The Equalizer 3
Robert McCall is shot and needs time to recover in a picturesque Italian town. Takes too long to build and not enough action.

Film ● Mini-Review: John Wick: Chapter 4
A sufficiently satisfying conclusion. Despite the long runtime, it actually doesn’t drag.

Film ● Mini-Review: Anna
It’s basically Luc Besson’s updated, Cold War version of Le Femme Nikita starring a Russian model.

Film ● Mini-Review: The Fable: The Killer Who Doesn’t Kill
This sequel is a more focused story, so it is not as fun but it is still a decent, enjoyable film.

Tries to be a vigilante-revenge film but fails to achieve much of anything.

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 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.

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: 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.

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.
