About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a turn-your-brain-off action ride with chases, fights, and parkour in a gritty dystopian setting; Not for you if you need strong writing or realism, like in Taken 2.
Pros: energetic action set pieces; fun parkour stunts; fast-paced runtime | Cons: weak story and dialogue; uneven acting; clichéd, confusing plotting
