An average movie

To be honest, I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since I have a weak spot for Liam Neeson, I thought I might as well check it out, especially since it was available on Netflix. Well, eventually, I was surprised by how underwhelming the damned thing actually turned out to be. Sure, as expected, Liam Neeson delivered his usual tough guy act but, in fact, the other characters managed to be even less compelling. However, the main issue I had was mostly with the story though. Seriously, the damned thing was just rather boring and what was the deal with this title? Sure, it was a pretty cool title but what did it actually have to do with the plot? To make things worse, I thought the whole thing was rather lazy. For example, you never get a clear explanation about why these 2 guys were targeting drug dealers or, to be more specific, women linked to drug dealers. Furthermore, how come nobody seemed to be aware of these murders? Indeed, when Matt Scudder got involved, they had already killed a couple of women in a gruesome way which should have been all over the news but neither Scudder or anyone else seemed to notice that something had been going on for a while already. Anyway, to conclude, even though the directing was not bad, I thought it was still rather weak and I don’t think it is really worth a look.
