Mitch Rapp (Dylan O'Brien) életét egy szörnyű tragédia árnyékolja be: egy terrorista támadás során a szeme láttára ölik meg a menyasszonyát. A mindenre elszánt férfi személyes bosszút esküszik, egyetlen célja, hogy kiiktassa a kegyetlen merénylőket. Az egykori sikeres atlétára a CIA igazgatóhelyettese, Irene Kennedy (Sanaa Lathan) is felfigyel: felveszi Mitchet az ügynökség elit terroristaelhárító programjába, majd a hidegháborús veterán, a kőkemény Stan Hurley (Michael Keaton) kezeire bízza. A kiképzés során a hajthatatlan Rapp profi gyilkológéppé válik, aki nem kímél egyetlen fanatikus merénylőt sem. A fiatal hírszerző hamarosan a Közel-Kelet legveszélyesebb radikális harcosaival találja szembe magát, akik bármilyen eszközt képesek bevetni, hogy világuralomra törjenek. (Freeman Film)

Egy újabb felesleges, fiatal Jack-Ryan-wanna-be klón, aki Bourne sikere után sóvárog. A trailer hazudott, csak az első negyedórában szól vadászatról a dzsihádista terroristákra, amit egy igazán erős tengerparti jelenet ural. A film többi része az atombombakészítők rutinszerű felkutatásáról szól, amit a klisék, a (dis)kontextus és unalmas szereplők miatt becenévvel illet. Mit vártak egy ilyen nagynevű producerek egy ilyen gyenge forgatókönyvtől?? A főszereplő fiú átlagos (Taylor Kitsch ellenfele jobb), Michael Keaton pedig csak a honoráriumra emlékszik belőle.

I loved the trailer, but I'm not too excited about the film. While it's a subject that I almost always enjoy, something didn't sit right with me here. The opening on the beach or the fight in the hotel were decent and that's about it. I didn’t like the sound, how many times you couldn't hear the bang, even two cars crashing made almost no sound, which was very strange. The R-rating could have been exploited more and young Dylan O'Brien might be more suited a role like this five years from now. Fine for one viewing, but rather average in terms of action. I liked Ethan Hawke's 24 Hours to Live better. 60%.

A film about two totally different halves. While the first has balls and promises an interesting (anti)terrorist ride like Kingdom, reaching a climax in the first minutes with an impressive shootout on the beach, the second one is just a bland spy thriller full of clichés we’ve seen a thousand times. The cast is likeable, and so is the absence of some of the established trends of the genre. So there is no secondary love story between the main character and the agent and the bomb does go off at the end. This was already evident in the trailer and it's a fresh and pleasant change. However, there are still plenty of those classic ancillary tweaks and screenwriting shortcuts that kill the possibility of this being an above-par experience. And yet, Kitsch is fine and the action itself is very decent. A must-see for fans, but that’s it.

The only thing I liked about the film was its great action. The story itself was rather far-fetched. The main character was really funny and, the way I see it, it was just about making me believe that Big Brother can do anything he puts his mind to. The biggest problem for me was that I just didn’t buy that the CIA would make a top agent out of an unmanageable skinny kid with PTSD, and that this muscleless expert could beat with his bare hands a guy at least forty pounds heavier (and trained), etc. I also really liked the maneuver of the 6th Fleet, which bravely turned their sides to the giant wave. After all, an American ship will endure anything. It was just as dumb as Admiral Halsey thinking he could win against a typhoon.

I have to say that I quite liked this film and I enjoyed it. It's quite fast-paced, and it's also very gritty, perhaps unexpectedly so. The torture was indeed very unpleasant and uncomfortable to watch, which is just as well. Films shouldn't be afraid of grittiness if it's an important part of them.
