    ★ 4/10

    What was most annoying was that every guess I made in the film I was wrong, especially when some of my guesses would've made sense... - The beginning of the film, there was a girl who recorded the whole massacre. I assumed she would be a witness who would be escorted to testify, which in turn would start off the whole action. Nah, instead they just skipped to the part where it was all exposed. - When the SAS stormed in, Tom Wilkinson's character was by the table peacefully, I would thought it meant he surrendered and was willing to turn himself in and make a plea deal. Instead, Andy Serkis' character shot him dead. - The secret messaging for Ruby Rose's character made me believe Noel Clarke was the informant, only to see her shoot him dead, which dispelled my theory. - At the end, I thought the protagonist would choose to let the baddie live, as killing her is what she would've wanted, only to surprisingly kill her gruesomly. This was a huge disappointing mess.

    Passable but very forgettable action-thriller. I liked the cast well enough but there's really not a whole lot that stands out from the action/fight scenes to pretty one-dimensional characters. 2.75/5

    As far as action and entertainment movies go, this one was okay. Sure, there were some scenes that did not turn out the way you would have thought, or wanted, but if you were looking to be entertained with explosions and suspense, you would not be disappointed, I wasn't.⭐⭐⭐⭐
