Can’t believe this hasn’t been reviewed yet.
Hitman Jason Stratham wakes up to find out he’s been injected with ‘Chinese shit’ and the only way he can stay alive long enough to wreak revenge is to get constant hits of adrenalin.
Don’t take it too seriously and enjoy it for what it is: a pop-corn action movie that’s a lot of fun.
There’s some nifty cinematography/editing too (for example when he’s in the car on his phone the person he’s talking to is in the wing-mirror).
PMSL.I forgot to review it.. seen it few weeks befo xmus.. umm good film yeah.. thought the ending was a lil toss.. not as good as his Transporter films! 😀

When he was driving at some point… [can’t remember] Nothing to worry about, just a little detail I thought was pretty cool along with the staggered close-ups of his face when he goes mental and the scene where he’s got writing on his forehead. I checked the IMDB after I watched it and the writer-directors are a couple of cameramen which makes sense.
I can see why some of you didn’t like the ending (it considerably defied the rules of gravity for one thing) but it made me laugh and if you want to get all arty-pharty could be interpreted as the final piss-take in a movie that takes the piss out of the action genre from start to finish: as stellas said, the sex scene was classic.
‘ Loved it!This film is utterly mental.
If they’d given in a ska soundtrack rather than the trashy West Coast metal then it’d get maximum points from me. Statham, off his face in a hospital gown powering through the streets of LA to the sounds of Bad Manners or the Specials would have been genius. I could even forgive the helicopter that gains height quicker than the space shuttle.
Top notch, funny action film.
