The action is like the Matrix, everything else is scum

Finally, I saw a movie that has the same action style as "The Matrix". James McAvoy, Angelina Jolie, Morgan Freeman, are also star-studded.

Bullets can turn corners, kill ten people with one bullet, knock bulletproof cars over and kill people, mouse bombs, perverted knife techniques, completely ignore the laws of physics, but have no theoretical basis.

As for the plot, acting, etc., there is no brilliance. Especially the plot, it's so vulgar that a mediocre person finds out that he is the son of a super assassin. After being excavated by the organization, he becomes a superman. In the end, the organization betrays him and he kills everyone. That's the whole plot.

So it's the action scenes that remind me of The Matrix, and nothing else.

But the action is really dazzling, and it's very imaginative compared to the typical Hollywood action movie of bombing buildings and bombing planes. Especially at the beginning of Angelina Jolie's car ride, I was stunned. It's also fun to hit someone with a keyboard.
