4/10
If having your intelligence insulted is your game, this is your kinda movie.

Warning: Spoilers
Are people in the UK oblivious to anything but soccer...sorry, football? It seems you can have raging shootouts involving military helicopters and motorcycles driving through the stadium and jumping from rooftops and no watching the game notices. I mean, I get the whole suspend your disbelief thing, but at least try to make it look like there was reason for the myopic behavior other than a game on the field.

They also don't notice a very bloodied large man walking around looking like he was in a car accident, yet draws no attention by even the security...until he runs on the field that is. Don't mess with the game buddy! Typical hooligan I guess. Based on this, I'm pretty sure much of the UK will not know when WWIII starts because you know...football!

Add to that the typical 100 or so moments where normal people in similar situation would be easily killed by getting an iron pipe smashed off their head several times, or punched and kicked in the face repeatedly, aaaaand the status quo 85 lb angry girl who can lay waste to a 280 lb ex-soldier who just moments before did pretty well for himself taking care of a 350 muscled freak of nature, and you have the modern action fantasy in it's finest form, with not even a hint of believability because, why bother? This genre is about as plot-centric as low grade porn.

It's just too much when you ad it all up to give it more than 4 stars as the plot is too thin to carry it regardless of the copious amounts of drama-tinted destruction tacked on that humans obviously thirst for.
