It actually is. I know some critics have been quick to label this a classic mindless action movie but the script and acting were insane! The fight scenes were brilliant and in terms of a revenge plot, this hit all the spots. Absolute classic in my opinion.
This is probably Adkins' best film. Amazing action, interesting style of storytelling with the flashbacks that teach us where all his scars come from, and Adkins' performance is genuinely really good. He sells the character arc and the threat of the character, but also his vulnerability and humanity.
He got beat with cricket bats, slap jacks, crow bars, billy clubs, got glassed with about 20 beer mugs at once, got slashed across the face, got burned in the face with hot liquid, got shanked in the lower flank on at least 3 or 4 different occasions, took numerous punches, elbows, and kicks to the face and.. got his fronts broke off after being made to bite a metal step before getting stomped in the back of the head. He just wound up being one tough piece of scar tissue.
Just watched this movie for the first time and I can't believe I'd been sleeping on this for so long. This is a way better movie than I expected and Scott Adkins was absolutely brilliant in it.
Just randomly sat down with my brother when he was watching it, and first i was like, ouss Scott Adkins. And man I dont regret it, one of Scotts best performance hands down, And the fighting was so entertaining and not so much flashy hollywood moves. Great action all around alongside with the acting.
Why anyone would choose to become a prison guard is beyond me. It's like living in a prison without being a prisoner. Fuck that, you couldn't pay me enough.
@@themodernninja8074 I worked in a prison for 8 and a half years and I have been a detention officer for over 3 years which is still corrections but it's way better,safer and it's alot more money than I made before,it's easy money.
I don't know how I heard about this movie. It was 3 years ago when I watched it. But it's criminal that no one talks about it when people talk action movies. It's disappearing under the radar which is sad.

@@unevengamers1426 he used to be a boxer and not a very good one just good enough to fix fights for his family, even after all his “training” in prison he has his hardest fight with a normal police officer still love it all though!
What I really liked about it was that Scott Adkins doesn't use his usual style of martial arts, It's mostly punches and elbows (with the odd kick here and there), high flying roundhouses etc wouldn't work in an enclosed environment like that so it was good to see a bit of realism instead of the usual hollywood bull, great performance and really impressive realistic fights (although I'm not sure about 3 kidney stabbings) .
What a movie..i always said that scott should be more cocky and brash and instead of these meek badass roles he was taking..this is why i vote this and accident man as his 2 best movies...dudes got the look the skill and the acting chops to boot..if hollywood didnt have an agenda against straight white men then scott would be bigger than jean claude or steven seagal ever were...cant wait for accident man 2
Talk about Craig Fairbrass as Pat Tate in the …Footsoldiers franchise being a violent arsehole. But here, he plays Adkins’s older brother and he’s shit scared of him. I came across this movie by chance during lockdown on Netflix and it blew my mind to piece to a point, I bought it on dvd. I look forward to Scott Adkins in the new John Wick movie released later on this year.
Watching it now,I know it’s acting but the fights are brutal ffs Scott Adkin plays a great part,and shows his fitness I wouldn’t wanna take him on for 20grand
This is Adkins best film. This shows his acting skills and physicality to a whole new level.
I think it really highlights his acting abilities
Idk man The debt collector movies were dope as well
It actually is. I know some critics have been quick to label this a classic mindless action movie but the script and acting were insane! The fight scenes were brilliant and in terms of a revenge plot, this hit all the spots. Absolute classic in my opinion.
@@richardhart3442 Agreed
@@jrewing1512 also agreed what you said about Adkins…Jesus he’s never been more convincingly terrifying 😅
Watched this film randomly one night on netflix, and was glad i did, definitely one of my favourite scott adkin movies
I did the exact same thing u just said I found it on Netflix randomly and started watching
@@faraz6799 The fight scenes were like something from "they live"
The way they scream when fighting

Scott Adkins is so underrated
Agreed

The hot liquid was actually napalm
@@joshhallewell8439 well it was just heated up sugar it's just called napalm because of the lasting scars.
I never got why he didn’t close his mouth. He didn’t have to keep his mouth open
@@Welcome-l7k His teeth would broke anyway.

"I learnt how to take pain but more importantly I learnt how to dish it out"
What a film!!! I have always admired Scott Adkins as a fighter but this film has made me totally respect his talent as an actor.
Gotta love that bit in the meal hall. "No bullying" pinned on the notice board 🤣
Ye I saw that lol
These are some of the greatest fight scenes I’ve ever seen😦
Just watched this movie for the first time and I can't believe I'd been sleeping on this for so long. This is a way better movie than I expected and Scott Adkins was absolutely brilliant in it.
One of the best films and fight scenes I’ve ever seen,the man’s a f ing beast

That little smile at the end though 😂
Damn, getting hit by Scott Adkins is like getting hit by a Brick.
This movie helped me decide to NOT become a prison guard
Why anyone would choose to become a prison guard is beyond me. It's like living in a prison without being a prisoner. Fuck that, you couldn't pay me enough.
I have been in corrections for over 11 years all together im a detention officer now it's way better,safer and it's more money.

@@shawnsmith2610 Not sure anyone else has said it, but thanks for what you do.
I have a lot of respect for prison guards, really brave job.
Well, this fight is truly realistic than in most martial arts film. Adkins were fight like a stunt or he fight like realistic on some movies.
My fave Adkins film...he went complete beast mode !💪🏾
Damn, Adkins is like a machine in this movie! Fully dedicated to the role
Scott Adkins you are Legend
Have watched this movie over 20 times and will continue to watch it many more.
the scene where they curb stomped him was the nastiest and scariest thing ever. sent chills down my spine. uhg
Randomly watched this on Netflix one day. Glad I took the chance. Incredibly entertaining and the story took me off guard just a bit!
1:40 my God this shit like america history x
Curb stomp
Last fight scene is soo prefect that its looks like real
I don't know how I heard about this movie. It was 3 years ago when I watched it. But it's criminal that no one talks about it when people talk action movies. It's disappearing under the radar which is sad.
This movie really shows the spirit of avengement turns men to be a monster!
C'te film rlax Kndes Aurnia Borealis. Manane di bloott man deen eef dam trooof ma no dam no? Rassss ja! Bada bleeem!

One of the best movie Scott really performed so good in this movie 👌👌
The scene where he gets curb stomped genuinely makes my stomach turn every single time
Very American History X
The fighting scenes in this movie reminds me a lot of The Punisher Netflix series
Exactly! This just proves that Scott could easily make a great punisher as well.
That's definitely a new take on Scott's MA skills - almost no flashy spinning kicks, or his signature Guyver kick, instead - raw and brutal punches.
no its because in this movie he is like a gangster street fighting in other movies he is a martial artist
@@yes-qw6om They mention in the movie how he use to be a martial artist.
@@unevengamers1426 he used to be a boxer and not a very good one just good enough to fix fights for his family, even after all his “training” in prison he has his hardest fight with a normal police officer still love it all though!
@@nolanfontaine-keith7910 He doesn't seem normal. He has some MMA skill.
Scott Adkins used to be a boxing coach, he can definitely choreograph a fight scene without throwing kicks.
Thanks for putting this on RUclips man. This Movie was literally something else. Best fighting scenes.. 🔥
7:57 best moment nj
I love how he just puches the other fella with the baldies head 😂

Awesome
Bro really can’t catch a break
Workout . Fight . Repeat .
The Best movie ever

I’ll love to see Cane vs Yuri Boydka lol
I think it's Caine
* Boyka
Yuri would win 😂😂😂 Cain would put up a good fight tho
This isn't really a movie. More like a film crew filming Scott's average year of existence.

Wish they could show punches as if they are hitting home rather than pulled
