When you see a Jason Statham movie, you know it's not going to be a brain teaser. But that doesn't mean it can't be enjoyable with the right mindset. And that mindset needs to be to not look for a great plot, logical sequences, believable storyline.
What we have here is a modern problem, call center scams, and a talented vigilante. We have a reason for the vigilante to be angry. We have a great villainous target -- the general concept of these scam call centers and the creeps who run them -- and we have a series of action scenes that the Statham franchise is known for and well-liked for.
If you want to pick apart all of the logical problems of the movie, you won't have a good time. Your chart will be filled with "That would never happen..." statements. But if you can just enjoy the cut and paste storyline of specialized action hero vs corrupt villainous enterprise, then you can sit back and enjoy.
