This is a rumbling action movie based on video games by Sam Lake , one of the most important action games ever made for the P.C. Tough and two-fisted Mark Wahlberg as detective who sets out to uncover the truths behind his family's killing , his role as revenger driven by determination to avenge , acting as judge, jury and executioner is similarly to ¨Death Wish-Charles Bronson¨ and recently ¨the Punisher-Thomas Jane¨. Large secondary cast as Chris O'Donnell, Beau Bridges,Kate Burton and the Bond-girl Olga Kurylenko. And a brief interpretation as widow by the famous singer Nelly Furtado. Colorful and dark cinematography with glistering camera-work by Jonathan Sela capturing the rain and snow that falls on N.Y. buildings and streets . Stirring musical score fitting to noisy action by Marco Beltrani. This Neo-noir vendetta picture is middling directed by John Moore . He is an expert on remakes (The Omen, Flight of the Phoenix) and warlike action (Behind enemy lines). Rating : Acceptable and passable. The flick will appeal to Mark Wahlberg fans.
