  Shoot me too!
  
  I love a good action film. I really do.

  'The Mechanik'
  
  The storyline for this film was poor, The mechanik has to rescue a girl in Russia.
  
  If you like lots of fighting and shooting this film is for you.

  Bog standard action flick
  
  A good sit in on a rainy monday evening but nothing that will stick in the memory
