Trivia
The Mechanic (2011) was not a huge hit, so the sequel was financed independently. Jason Statham has said that after doing supporting roles in The Expendables 3 (2014), Furious 7 (2015), and Spy (2015), he wanted to give his fans a starring performance again in the genre that they have come to expect from him.

Goofs
At the end of the film, Gina is rescued immediately after she escapes the yacht. She is then shown being loaded into an ambulance at some docks while the wreckage of the yacht is being offloaded as well. Unless her rescuer wandered around the ocean for many hours, if not days, there is no way a salvage ship could be sent out to the yacht, pick up the pieces and return to the docks at the same time that Gina does.

Quotes
Arthur Bishop: Tell your principal it never pays to fuck with the dead.

Mindless entertainment with a totally game Statham

Mechanic: Resurrection takes a while to get going but once Jason Statham goes on his one man killing spree it's totally worth revisiting this franchise for 90 minutes of mindless entertainment. Since this is about a bald assassin travelling the globe to dispatch people and make it look like an accident, it's also the best Hitman adaptation currently.

Jason Statham can do this in his sleep so the fact that he still gives 100% is really appreciated. With a supporting cast filled with big names who aren't given much, Statham essentially has to carry this one and does it effortlessly. Tommy Lee Jones is only in it for about 10 minutes at the most and it's obvious he doesn't care which is actually pretty fun.

Dennis Gansel's direction is solid overall. The action is choppier than the first and there are some distractingly poor CG backdrops interspersed with all the luxurious locales. His greatest strength lies in ensuring the film has one really memorable set piece which was basically the whole marketing campaign for this one.
