Don't know how it was Netflix's most watched movie, at least that's what some articles reported on the Internet.

Gotta admit the trailer I viewed made it seem interesting and I did watched it.

But the acting by most of the side characters were horrible, like high school drama class play level talents, but only C+ level performance at best.

The first act was okay, setting up the back story and motivation for the main protagonist.

Second act was predictable, and even the double cross was predictable, because of how the movie progressed up to that point, so the "big bad" reveal was pretty much telegraphed or leaked by just keeping track of how much time is still left before the end of the movie.

Third act, predictable with almost no plot twist and the hero did his job to complete his primary objectives. He did failed the hostage rescue bonus objective and the acting to end the film made it feel like it was no big deal at all. So much for the grief of a daughter losing her dad. Or that scene was filmed way before and the actors had no clue about that minor detail in storytelling.

Just another movie with good potentials, getting sloppy with the progression of the film, and losing steam or good script to finish strong. So par for just about 90+% of Netflix movies.

Does it deserve the less than 4 out of 10 aggregate review rating? I think that's a bit harsh. I gave it 4, but it was not a 5, but I also viewed it with original Polish audio track, so the voiceover in English might be even more terrible, thus justifying the low user rating.

Netflix, don't give up, but do urge your directors and actors to do better on Netflix original projects.

As an action movie - it was just OK, with game like scene where main character walks down the corridor and enemies (apparently trained soldiers) approach him one after the other allowing him to take them down one by one :) The movie takes an universal problem of powerful people using fear to gain in politics, but uses it to influence real political conflict in Poland.

The plot of the movie must have been written before war on Ukraine, as the movie tries to indicate that the Polish government is using artificial threats for their political reasons and places patriots as negative characters.

Now after the war on Ukulele started, when the threats highlighted by government materialised, this movie lost it's political aspect and is only "below average" action movie.

I don't regret watching it though - it did entertain me at the end.

Seriously....it's impossible to unseen this movie. It seems to be class Z production: far-fetched scenario, gun fight scenes repeated with mirror effect just to act as brand new for spectator, poor post-production CGI effects and finally: characters pale as medival virgin's skin. I can't believe that actor like Jacek Koman took part with this project. In 80s the movie could propably compete with movies starring Michael Dudikoff but today it makes me feel embarrased and ironic smile on my face appears. I tried to find any positive aspect of this movie but even trying to remind soundtrack is pointless. Many years ago I watched "The Taylor from Panama" and I scored it as worst movie I ever seen - unfortunately, it changed now.
