WOW what a great film



Dwayne Johnson really played his role well



I thought it was going to be a mindless shooter, and i'll admit the story is pretty basic, but i found it to be a highly enjoyable flick.



I recommend it. As if that means anything.

I liked the blending of the themes of revenge and redemption.

There are some points where it would be justifiable to be critical, but overall I enjoyed it.

Also, I now feel the need to get a large caliber revolver.

I'm Brohawk, and I recommend this movie.

Ehhh, I felt it was maybe worth the price of a rental or netflix order, but not worth the price of two movie tickets.



The "hitman" character didn't even need to be in the storyline and frankly seemed a bit out of place. The Rock and Billy Bob Thorten would have been fine on their own and the time spent on the hitman character would have been better spent further developing their characters.

From the previews it looked like a .44mag Ruger Alaskan.

one part has been bugging me.

can someone explain his tattoo? the one that was on his forearm that made the Samoan guy shit himself...

is this some prison tattoo thing i dont know about? to me it just looked like some lines with dots in it, or the lines covered up an old tattoo...

ETA- did each black line / bar = number of kills ?

A good friend of mine helped with the sound FX on this movie.

Said the script specified in detail on what guns were used by the characters, like H&K P30.

Yes, as well as the other markings in between the lines IIRC from the movie.
