It's a pity that he didn't perform well in this movie. The first is about being handsome. There have always been people saying that Tommy is old, he is not as handsome as before, his body can't keep up with before, and he can't make the same action scenes as before. But I don't think that's the case. There is something called masculinity. Although he is old, there is an extra portion left on his face. I don't know how to say it, mature? In fact, this is enough, as long as a good script and role modeling are added, in fact, he can still be ruthless and impressive.
Secondly, this time, without high-tech equipment, turning to crime and thriller genres, Tom also tried his best to act. But whether this is successful or not is a matter of opinion. I always feel that a thriller has a script at the latest, and a bad script is basically a tragedy. In addition, I asked weakly, is this based on a novel? The urine of this story feels quite similar.
Action elements, this is really going to be a rant. I remember two fight scenes, one was Jack 1v5, and the other was one-on-one with a sniper, but each time it took only a few minutes (<2 minutes) for Tom to show his exhaustion. I said Tom, he is old in reality, so there is no need to put it into the movie. This reminds me of a sentence in the commentary "Journey to the West, you will fall before I contribute"...
The design of the predicament is also normal in this movie. Maybe it has something to do with the script, don't be picky.
Finally, in fact, about the image of Jack, it should be very elegant and powerful, but at the same time it is a character of his own principles and beyond the law, as can be seen from the dialogue with Zec and the description of Barrs at the end. But there is really too little writing and ink in the play, which makes people feel that the understanding of this character is a little shallow, and naturally it is difficult for people to be moved.
