A solid piece of unpretentious action film making with great stunt work, good John wickesque fight choreography, clear emotional stakes, and a charismatic leading turn from Hemsworth. I'm particularly taken with the faux one take car chase shoot out near the midpoint, one of the cooler urban action set pieces since Heat or John Wick Russian club scene.
