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: John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum
Not a bad action film but it is more of the same.

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

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 Villainess
In some ways the Korean version of La Femme Nikita. Nicely shot revenge flick but perhaps predictable.

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: John Wick
A well-produced shoot ’em up with interesting enough worldbuilding.

Film ● Mini-Review: A Walk Among the Tombstones
Slow and uneventful, even for noir. The plotting and pacing could use some improvement.

Film ● Mini-Review: 3 Days to Kill
Some nice set pieces initially, and nicely shot with decent sound editing too. Not bad but lacks wow factor and not particularly memorable.

Film ● Mini-Review: Olympus Has Fallen
Ridiculous premise but an entertaining fast-paced shoot ’em up. Good performance by Butler and Yune.

Film ● Mini-Review: The Long Kiss Goodnight
An action flick that tries to be balanced. Not bad even if it has moments that are over-the-top.
