The film was directed by John Woo and therefore the action is very impressive, but there is very little of it, for my taste. Most of the time is devoted to preparation and a little bit of suffering for his dead son, which Kinnaman plays out very impressively, given that he is mute in the plot. But the facial expressions are great. The bandits are mostly faceless, and the final battle, for my taste, turned out to be too simple. But in general, John Wu has collected all the cliches of the militants here, including a car chase, the obligatory glavgad girl, frostbitten all over her head, the hefty assistant of glavgad, with whom the hero fights at the limit of his strength. There was also an incorruptible policeman who got into it and also helped a little. The template is on the template, but it's driving. In those places, there is also this very drive and action. Personally, I expected more from John Woo, in fact. And so it turned out to be a passing action movie, well, yes, very little is said in the film, and the main character is generally silent, but somehow this trick was not particularly beaten. Well, there is one, so what?! Does it somehow prevent you from shooting bandits?! I don't think so.. And what's the joke?! That's what I mostly didn't like. He's dumb, and so what the hell?! But you can watch it — the action is still a test!

John Wu's experiment failed... The actors play average, scenario cliches do not work, because initially most of them are implied with the presence of voice accompaniment, as a result it is very difficult to watch, but as an experiment it has the right to be

I was very upset by the selection of music. She didn't fit into the picture at all, I'm not saying that there should be a cheerful techno in the Wick, but here the audio director clearly fucked up in full. It seems that they typed songs from the stock, but Wu could link a mute picture with the corresponding sound.
And, yes, there is a scene in one frame.

An interesting idea with a mute protagonist, but as noted above - there are too many cliches - and an assistant with whom you need to fight before the final boss, and a crazy girlfriend. Well, it's kind of average.

The first 50 minutes of the film can be described with the phrase: The main character's son is killed and he is preparing to take revenge. I thought that for more than half of the film, Wu was saving the budget and would continue to be a non-stop action, but no. I can't even call it an action movie, there are more tears than bullets fired.
And also the main character of silent III.. “what? In "No One Will Save You" it was very cool, but here it's like all the dialogues were replaced with awkward nods.
It's not a movie, it's a movie-containing product. I didn't like it terribly.

It would seem to be from John Wu. There should be pigeons, a church and shooting at slow mo from a U-turn.
But in fact, this is a be-class action movie, which already has more than half a movie, the main character is just strenuously preparing to go kill mex bandits - presses dumbbells, pokes a knife at a mannequin, farts in an oath. All this, according to the original idea, happens in silence, but this does not change anything - in the process, it comes to the realization that John Wu's films could have simply turned off the sound before.
You will forget this slag half a minute after the end credits.

It feels like John Woo was taken just for the sake of the name and the director was some kind of nouneymes, I haven't watched such a sad shit for a long time.

Of course, I appreciated the concept with a silent narration, and I think the dubbing studios did too. Remember, even if your child was killed, you need to get in shape after the New Year holidays! So, push-ups, pull-ups, abs. We repeat everything as the main character, and there will be no more belly after a ton of olivier. Kid Cudi. What? John Wu also just shoved him into the movie. Why am I worse?

the ending of the film resembles doom, the main character goes through units of varying degrees of sophistication and skills, and eventually scores two minibosses and one boss.

A good idea with a mute hero, otherwise complete crap, it's a pity that I spent time on it.
