What people are saying
- Gimly★ 6/10
Joe Lynch's work is pretty much always just enough to provide an argument that they could be considered "good". Point Blank is another in that line. I won't come back for a second viewing, but this was honestly kind of fun. Anthony Mackie and Frank Grillo are a pretty dynamic lead pair. Final rating:★★★ - I liked it. Would personally recommend you give it a go.
