This is your typical guy trying to erase his past because he screwed up with his life kind of thing. He was once violent but tried to change, ex-druggie, bad dad, and that whole nine. The movie is kind of slowly paced while they try to get you attached to the character while never fully revealing their past until close to the end. The movie itself is more on the drama side than the action side and was unfortunately almost boring in some spots. I also have to mention a few plot points kind of don't fully hang together story-wise. The second half of the movie picks up the pace some but never quite hits that high potential. However, the last 20 minutes of the movie are actually pretty spectacular. I also give the protagonist style points for unconventional choice of weapon and unique kills, as well as being realistically portrayed. By this I mean the character wasn't some super human with highly choreographed fighting moves and unnatural speed. His character was simply extraordinarily brutal and that made him more believable than most action movie protagonists. Overall, I will say this may not be up everyone's alley, but I am not sorry that I watched it. Not too bad.
