About
You may like this if you want a darker, more reflective crime drama with occasional bursts of action, somewhere between Dead Man Down and The Mechanic; Not for you if you want nonstop fights and a simple plot.
Pros: gritty London atmosphere; stronger dramatic lead; solid action moments | Cons: messy story threads; slower than expected; uneven pacing
