Wow....whwre ti start?
If you really like Jason statham, then you'll probably like it.
But the shows main hardship is really bad sequencing between scenes. Even the jump cuts jn and between scenes is really bad.
The show really tries really hard to to be the following movies while never nailing any of them
I think the show was funded from China which gave it a much larger budget than it deserved and mishandling the funds the whole time. As the cgi and practical effects are comically bad. I think. The Russian costumes are laughable. I think with a smaller budget and a director who has the sole responsibility for vision would have trimmed the film down to essentials and made tougher choices in what made the final edit.
Yet despite how B rated this is...even compared to other B films...it still kept me hoping for more. And it ends with this open ending cliffhangers that falls really short of me caring. As I doubt this show will ever get funded for a sequel. Probably stathams worst film to date.
It has moments that are cool. And if they kept that as the baseline, this would have been an excellent copycat movie. Instead it's a decent one time watch.
