More of the same from Statham in ‘The Mechanic’

Director: Simon West

Cast: Jason Statham, Donald Sutherland, Ben Foster

Another mindless Statham trip into the territory he has made his own: bereft of anything other than relentless and depressing violence conducted by characters with nothing that enlists warmth from the audience.

Of course, if you’re a fan of the Statham School of Moviemaking you’ll thrill at every depressingly moronic moment.

Here Statham plays dedicated hitman Arthur whose friend Harry (Sutherland) is killed and whose son Steve (Foster) joins him for bloody revenge … but are things what they seem?

Who cares!
