    Ron Pearlman drinks wine

    Watch Ron Pearlman drinks wine for 10 consecutive minutes you found the right movie.

    Very mediocre... bad almost

    Story wise this movie has some potential with the hitman for the Jewish Maffia angle... but it's just poorly executed. I love Ron Perlman, but this was a very stiff performance, the rest of the cast was also 'mweh' at best... directing not strong, script not strong. Not saying it's a bad movie, it's okay for a boring sunday evening when you've got nothing else to see.

    Decent.

    Ron Perlman plays the role of contract killer and after being giving the job to kill the people who were behind the murder of a family attached to his crime family organization, he gets in front of the apartment door of the one of his hits, he then collapses from an old wound that has taking a toll on his body and crash lands on another apartment door (Famke) she opens he completely goes down on her floor and there the old formula of the contractor falling in love and wanting to get out the business begins. Has this been done before? Yes. Is this film bad? Not at all. Definitely watchable. And it's not just because I'm a big Perlman fan, but the story did make sense. At best, a weekend afternoon, I got time to kill film. Nothing more, but decent.

    I really wanted to like it

    The review that said, "If the writing was better, it would have been a hit." That sums it up. Everything else about this was very good - sound, scenery, physical acting. It's all there, but it isn't

    Not action, just a slow paced drama/thriller/romance when in the mood for a story

    There's too little action here for me to label it as an action movie. The "suspense" is mostly trying to figure out what the story is about, so I won't give any spoilers. Suffice to say that it's very slow paced, but I enjoyed watching it once only, considering how hard it is for me to find good movies these days.

    I mainly watched it because of Framke Janssen who I liked in Taken, and Ron Perlman who I remembered from The Startup. It was good seeing both of them. Fortunately I kept my expectations low, so it worked out. I would have liked more action but the story was okay.

      Twice, Asher gets his intended mark to open their door by blowing cigarette smoke at at fire system sprinkler head which sets off the fire alarm. This type of sprinkler head is activated by heat or flame, not smoke.
