“I went to this movie in Sneak Preview, otherwise I probably would not have gone to watch it. The thought of watching a two hour thing about a French mafioso (do they even have Mafia in France?) who survives 22 bullets and then goes on a rampage of revenge, just doesnu0026#39;t appeal to me…u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIu0026#39;m going to have to admit that the movie wasnu0026#39;t really that bad though. There were some nice (and also brutal) scenes and Jean Reno was his usual steady self, nothing spectacular, but not bad either… overall the acting wasnu0026#39;t too bad. Not outstanding either, but given the fact that there are a lot of French nobodyu0026#39;s in the film, (no disrespect intended!) that was a pleasant surprise.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHowever, there were too many clichéu0026#39;s in this movie to make it anything more than amusing. The whole story was very predictable, with no unexpected plot twists or anything spectacular that will make it memorable.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eConclusion: If you wanna lay back and watch an entertaining movie, this is probably one for you. However, if you are looking for a little more depth, pass on this one. Itu0026#39;s not like you havenu0026#39;t seen this before…”
