★ 6/10
Passable, if not also forgettable, action-thriller with Scott Adkins holding his own and some of the stunt work wasn't half-bad. Wasn't fully buying Mario Van Peebles as the head of a drug cartel or his fake Spanish accent. Likely I won't remember this a day from now but being only 80-minutes, not a bad way to pass the time. 2.75/5
