It is lousy, lame, a garbage junk, I totally agree, but sorry, I like it and not because of Bruce Willis as a villain, I don't care about Bruce Willis since a long time now. No, I like it because the lead character is unknown to me and also because it is an anti hero, whose fate is always sealed. No future for him, as also is the scheme of a movie I will review tomorrow - SILENT NIGHT - from director John Woo, for a nearly very same plot - a father seeking revenge after the death of his child. But of course you have holes here large enough to let a semi trailer truck get through. For instance, I did not understand why Bruce Willis' goons wanted to kill this poor girl? Because she was the daughter of this war vet? And if this was the reason, why sending such a heavily armed commando? It is so laughable.... And the unlikely meeting between the hero and the gun dealer is so clumsy; the father meets a man in a hotel whilst he seeks guns and BY CHANCE, the man he meets is a gun dealer !!!! Ha ha ha... That said, the ending saves the whole from a total disaster. Not a Hollywood ending at last.
