the mechanic - 8/10
Caught the remake in theaters and thought it was a fun, competent action film, with Jason Statham playing the same role he always gets. If you get a chance to catch the 6/10 remake on television sometime, check it out, it's not on bad at all honestly. Not much to it, but I appreciate it not being too cheesy; when they kill a bad guy and the bad guy says "fuck you", they don't say "TIME TO WASH OUT THAT MOUTH SOAP.. MADE OF LEAD." or something fucking ridiculous. So there's that.
ANYWAY, decided to download the original. And it's damn good! It's action less, pretty much, for the first half. There's this great part where a woman kills herself in front of an uncaring Bronson. Really entertaining film.
