Tom Andrews’s review published on Letterboxd:
I really liked this movie. Denzel Washington is so good its not right. He great in great movies, but he's great in regular movies. He makes regular, otherwise forgettable movies memorable. This is a fun action adventure film. DW elevates it to something you recommend to people. Ryan Reynolds is good too. He does a good job here. He plays off of Denzel very well. The thing about Ryan Reynolds is they keep trying to make him a big star. So when he's just fine, and gives a fine, even good performance, he gets beat up for it. Lets not expect quite so much from him and I think we'll find that he's a fine and serviceable actor and there's no reason to keep throwing him under the bus. Watch this movie. Its a good time.
