Different day, same Liam Neeson. His films have already created their own genre because it takes talent to make dozens of films that have the same boilerplate structure and such bland action. Unfortunately age won’t stop him, so here it's just an old fart whom gangsters want dead because he refused to kill a 13-year-old girl. There's not much action, but the tension is built surprisingly decently, and the whole film, although it's not very distinctive, at least didn't piss me off enough to knock my forehead on what kind of crap I'd just watched again, and that’s happened quite often with the new Neeson films. For that reason, I'll easily give it an average three-star rating. It’s a film that can be skipped without regret, but it’s passable if you don’t have anything else at hand.
