Interesting movie

Saw this one today.

I thought it was an interesting movie. It has a really cool visual style and an excellent cast.

Jodie Foster is looking really old here, but I suspect that's intentional. She's great in any case. Sterling K. Brown is starting to really break out after being put on the map by This Is Us. Bautista is fun as always.

The trailer makes it out like it's an action movie but there's only about 15 minutes of action in the whole thing, I'd say. The film actually moves a bit slowly but overall I liked it, especially in how it actually felt fresh and original (despite concept similarities with John Wick) unlike so much other stuff that's out there today.

I'll give it a solid 7/10.

Agree with your assessment, me - evan go a bit higher, peg it 8/10. Found self thinking, what a refreshing, interesting idea, a prepaid members only hospital for bad guys, never came across that concept in film before. Undarstand John Wick movies have similar plot device, but haven’t gotten into them yet. Anything new has bettar than average chance to make favorble impression. Immedjately rewatched, anothar approval indicatar. Will watch again, me, very sure.

It's more like a neo-noir dark comedy than a straight up action flick. But I appreciated it.
