It is another evidence of Hollywood junk.Young kids may like this action flick but it is Extremely predictable with less dramatic ending & meaningless violence.
Simon West’s remake of the 1972 Charles Bronson feature The Mechanic begs to be compared to the original. Not because one is that much better than the other (though the Bronson original is more desirable), but because it’s a perfect snapshot of how films are made now compared to how they were made then. Without even seeing the original I would assume many filmgoers could predict the differences, most of them having to do with subtlety and a lack of franchise intentions. And it’s never more obvious than from the two scenes that bookend this film.
