Peppermint is definitely one of the better action movies I've seen in 2018. It was a solid action packed, tale of revenge that was pretty entertaining and thrilling. Jennifer Garner was great, she was a perfect fit for the role. I couldn't see too many actresses do a movie like this, but she is great emotionally portraying a mother who has just lost her family and physically in the action heavy scenes as she performed most of her own stunts and kicks plenty of ass.
The story may not be the most original, but anyone can relate to a movie about revenge as the theme is universal. It is fast paced, action packed, violent and worth a watch if you enjoyed movies like John Wick, Equalizer and other similar R-rated action titles. Overall, better than the similar plotted Death Wish remake that came out in early 2018. Ignore the mainstream critics, they generally hate these kinds of movies anyway. It is much better than what Rotten Tomatoes says.
