Revenge is a dangerous business and we find out just how dangerous when Mechanic:Resurrection arrives in our homes in December
Jason Statham returns as the elite, globe-trotting hitman in this slam bang, full throttle sequel to the 2011 box office smash.
Along for the ride this time and joining the cast are Jessica Alba(Sin City, Fantastic Four, Machete),Tommy Lee Jones (No Country For Old Men, Men In Black, Jason Bourne, The Fugitive),Michelle Yeoh(Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Tomorrow Never Dies),Sam Hazeldine(Peaky Blinders, ‘71, The Huntsman: Winter’s War)and Dennis Gansel (Director, The Wave, We Are The Night)
The world’s number one hit man, Arthur Bishop, aka ‘the mechanic’, is settling into retirement, when a vicious crime boss, Crain, offers him an assignment. After Bishop turns him down, Crain kidnaps Bishop’s girlfriend Gina, and sets him
a near-impossible task to get her back: he must kill three of Crain’s enemies – including an arms dealer and a genocidal warlord. If he doesn’t, Gina dies.
Racing against time, Bishop embarks on a breakneck mission across the continents, to complete the three assassinations in his trademark style – by making them look like accidents.
“A bite-sized Bond film, or maybe a grittier homicidal knockoff of the Mission: Impossible series, with a lone-wolf renegade as the entire team.”
