For the life of me I can't figure out how the title of the film has any thing to do with the story at all. The Villager is a run-of-the-mill action film that is painfully simplistic and offers no surprise or intrigue throughout. The film also fails to bring anything to the table and the plot twists are shallow and predictable. Adding fuel to the fire, the film is littered with plot holes and at times simply lacks common sense. The only semi-interesting main protagonists seems to have a pretty interesting backstory but it doesn't get explored at all, instead it focuses on the girl who seems to be in a million other mundane Asian films.
