Killer Elite 2011

Killer Elite (2011)    Based on real life events, an ex-special-ops agent comes out of retirement to track down his missing mentor.  It won't be easy, a master killer has dispatched three fierce assassins to exterminate this agent by any means necessary.
    How many are enough to make a "real" action movie - killings, car chases, car wrecks, hand-to-hand combat scenes?  This movie is just overload, more killings, car chases, car wrecks, fights than you can count, you forget what's even going on or what is behind any of this.  It goes on and on, you just want it to be over!  Clive Owen has a ridiculous mustache too!  2* (I didn't like this movie)

117 min, Action directed by Gary McKendry with Jason Statham, Clive Owen, Robert De Niro, Cominic Purcell, Aden Young, Yvonne Strahovski, Ben Mendelsohn.

Note:  Blockbuster 3 1/2*, imdb 6.5 out of 10, 25% critic 46% audience on Rotten Tomatoes.
