The Mechanic

Released in january of 2011, Arthur Bishop (Jason Statham) is a 'mechanic' - an elite assassin with a strict code and unique talent for cleanly eliminating targets. It's a job that requires professional perfection and total detachment, and Bishop is the best in the business. But when his mentor and close friend Harry (Donald Sutherland) is murdered, Bishop is anything but detached. His next assignment is self-imposed - he wants those responsible dead. His mission grows complicated when Harry's son Steve (Ben Foster) approaches him with the same vengeful goal and a determination to learn Bishop's trade. Bishop has always acted alone but he can't turn his back on Harry's son. A methodical hit man takes an impulsive student deep into his world and a deadly partnership is born. But while in pursuit of their ultimate mark, deceptions threaten to surface and those hired to fix problems become problems themselves

Dad watched this movie by himself after everyone wen to bed.

Dads Says:
I had to see this and I will continue to watch anything with Jason Statham. The Mechanic wasn't really the action I was looking for but it had a twist of a story. This is a must see for all the men around the globe. It's no crank or Transporter but its still a must see

It's cool. On a scale of 10, it's a 7. I dont have a favorite part of the movie so its wasn't all that.

It hard to get wrapped up in the story because it so well known. Honeslty it had a few funny parts but enough of the Romeo and Juliet stuff.

Daughter Says:
I liked it and my favorite part was when the blue gnomes crashed the house at the end.

Son Says: Yes i did like it. I like everything. I wanted the blue team to win.
