Comments (Spoiler Alert): It plays like a mediocre “B” movie with Mel Gibson in it. It was cringy and difficult to stick it out, but the end at least gives a proper (full circle) conclusion (and made me laugh). So, keep in mind you’ll see the end coming, but it’s the only good part of the movie. Save your time and choose a different movie to watch.
