Rated 4 out of 5 stars
good movie
Statham plays the role of Nick Wild, a bodyguard for hire in the high stakes town of Las Vegas. After being referred by a friend, Cyrus Kinnick (Michael Angarano) seeks out Nick to guard him during his stay at the Casinos. While tending to business, Nick's friend, Holly (Dominik García-Lorido) gets in an altercation with some members of a mob crew and seeks Nick's help to get her revenge.
Sounds like it's got all the making for an action packed thrill ride, right?! Well, yes AND no. The action is DEFINITELY there, but it's only there for a total of about 10-15 minutes of screen time. I will say, the scenes are REALLY well done! I really enjoyed the way they slow down during the fighting (you'll see what I mean). The rest of the movie is simply Statham's character fantasizing about getting away from Vegas for good and/or chatting it up with the locals he's become friends with over the years.
