Seth M Really loved it. Should be a franchise Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/23/21 Full Review Cyns Corner I remember when I first saw this back in 2016. I liked it so much, I watched it practically three times in a row as I introduced it to my brother and a friend after I'd seen it the first time. Then I found out a sequel was coming and was pleasantly surprised. I had no idea until late last year. In preparation for the sequel, I re-watched this and my goodness, what a great film. It had been many years since I'd last seen it so in a lot of ways it was like watching the story for the first time (even though there were some things I had remembered). I'm not sure how accurate Affleck's portrayal of a highly functioning autistic was, but I don't care. This film was solid and the writing was pretty darn good as well. It requires paying attention, as there are intricacies to the plot that require it. But it's not that hard to follow if you do. I fully enjoy the experience of watching the plot unfold and finding out more about the characters played by Affleck and Bernthal. While it's not super action-packed, that didn't matter to me. In fact, I rather enjoyed the limited action sequences, as too many of them tend to desensitize me to what's happening. Highly recommended. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/25/25 Full Review Audience Member Unique and well acted, plot and twist were very predictable, but I can't say I've ever seen a movie that had a severely autistic man be a hitman before. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/25/25 Full Review Audience Member Photography: 2.5/5; I give this rating not for the shots (which are good, normal) but for the image quality which for 2016 is poor, it is not even that beautiful grain of old films, it is really bad quality. Music: 2/5; the soundtrack does not exist, there is the classic action movie soundtrack just put there to give a little movement, no characteristic soundtrack that sticks in your head. Actors: 3.5/5; the actors are nothing incredible yes but they are good all in all, especially Affleck did well in the part of the autistic. VFX/SFX: 5/5 I don't think there is much CGI, especially special effects but simple and those that are there are done well so I give it the maximum rating. Plot: 3/5; classic action movie that tries to differentiate itself with the feature that the protagonist is autistic and therefore this theme is also treated, does the movie succeed in differentiating itself? ssssni, that is, in the end everything that happens in action movies happens, it starts with the action, in the middle there is the action, between the middle and the end there is a bit of rest and then it ends with the final battle, there is also a plot twist but it is predictable; the action scenes are well done, there is better but they are not bad. Makeup and hair: 5/5; here too everything is done well. Settings: 2.5/5; nothing special, normal settings from a B-series movie. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/24/25 Full Review Sam R Very entertaining and it shows that people with autism truly are underestimated. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/24/25 Full Review Brian S We all need our mythical heroes. Like Shane, Christian Wolff serves justice and rides off into the west.
