What the critics say

  • The Hollywood ReporterFrank Scheck "This franchise is badly in need of repair (...) The film is certainly watchable, thanks to the elaborately staged action sequences and Statham's killer charisma". Read
  • VarietyOwen Gleiberman "'Mechanic: Resurrection' is the movie 'The Mechanic' should have been ? a bite-sized Bond film, or maybe a grittier homicidal knockoff of the 'Mission: Impossible'". Read
  • The WrapRuss Fischer "'Resurrection' is bland and generic, as if the colorful heroes were cut away from some of Marvel?s cheapest setpieces". Read
