Movie Review: Mechanic: Resurrection

Details: Released in 2016. About one and a half hours long. Stars Jason Statham and Jessica Alba.

This was not a good movie. It’s a sequel to the original Mechanic, also starring Jason Statham, which came out in 2011.

The premise is this: Jason Statham plays an elite assassin who specializes in killing people and making it look like an accident. A girl he likes, played by Jessica Alba, gets kidnapped by someone who forces him to kill three targets and make the kills look like accidents in order to save Jessica Alba.

The best part of the movie was the opening sequence. There really isn’t much plot here, which would be fine if the action made up for it. The action didn’t make up for it unfortunately. Just a visually boring movie.

Score: 3/10
