Day 130 - Welcome to the Punch (UK and Ireland)




"welcome to the Punch relates the story of a former Icelandic criminal Jacob Sternwood (Strong), who comes out of hiding, in an effort to save his son when a heist goes wrong. Sternwood is the one man that London detective Max Lewinsky (McAvoy) has always been after. During their cat-and-mouse game, the two become unlikely allies, working together to expose a deeper conspiracy. Solve it, they live; fail, they die"

A simple action thriller that was carried by Mark Strong who did a better job than McAvoy. I was actually annoyed with James McAvoy's acting and wish the character had more depth. It was shorter than it should have been and I felt like the director wasted a lot of the time he had.

2/5
