“Liam neeson plays Jimmy Conlon, an aging and borderline alcoholic mob hitman who is forced to protect his son from his former boss Shawn Maguire played by the always excellent Ed Harris.nItu0026#39;s a satisfying blend of character drama and gritty, violent action. One of the things i really liked was nothing was overly spectacular and silly which gives the movie a more gritty and realistic feel. The action is quick, brutal and not glamorized and the dialogue feels like things real people would say during regular conversation as well, it gets annoying in movies sometimes when characters are spouting one liners like clowns.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003enLiam Neeson is solid as always and believable as a hard man who is passed his prime but will kill to protect his son even though he knows thereu0026#39;s no way itu0026#39;s going to end happy for himself. Heu0026#39;s either going to die or spend the rest of his life in prison but he doesnu0026#39;t care as long as his boy is safe.nWhen he lays a guy out flat with one punch with a broken nose and missing teeth you know his character is more than capable of doing it.nThe story isnu0026#39;t really anything you havenu0026#39;t seen before but itu0026#39;s a well made movie with good performances and the action scenes are filmed in a simple no frills style with no annoying shakey cam.nDefinitely a good time for fans of Neeson, Ed Harris and tough action thrillers.”
