Movie: The Mechanic
I just like hitman movies. I don't know if this one is going to be any good. I mean it's definitely not any in running for any serious awards, but the cast is pretty good as far action flicks go.
Jason Statham, come on. The guy's as bad assed as there is out there. Honestly when the film adaptation of the video game series Hitman came out, I was completely blaffled that they didn't choose him to play Agent 47. He looks like 47, sounds like 47, and is the perfect typecast for the role. Timothy Olyphant is a great actor, sure, but he just really fit in that role.
Then you have Ben Foster teaming up alongside Statham, who is, to be honest, one of the most underrated actors of today. IMBd lists him 8th on their list of 150 Best Living Actors, but for the most part he has yet to receive the roles his performances deserve.
