Just like Dwayne Johnson, Jason Statham is an action star whose movies I’ll always try watch. Most of them are not masterpieces, but his cold stare, cool image and his fighting techniques make most of his films very enjoyable. In the Mechanic he’s one of the best assassins in the world. He lives alone, works alone and his only person he could call a friend is the person that gives him his assignments.
When he’s forced to train someone else (Steve McKenna, played by Ben Foster) who has a connection with one of his victims, things get more complicated. It’s a situation he has to handle with a lot of care.
