The Grey Man (2022)

Very slick and tons of fantastic action, but there isn't a single moment in the entire film that isn't a tired old trope. Even Chris Evans' acid-tongued sociopath, while fun, feels like a carbon-copy of a '95-'05 John Travolta character. The rest of the performances are solid but unenergetic and similarly derivative.

Pretty much worth watching for the action, and possibly for the fun of shouting out which film is being stolen from at five seconds intervals, but it'll drop right out of your head afterwards.

Rating: Fine.
