Really enjoyed it. It doesn't feel like classic Woo, it feels like a hyper-competent first-time post-Wick action director's calling card, but it has a lot of truly excellent action in it.
There's basically no story (it's near to the most stripped-down revenge plot possible), but that's the point.
Sidenote: the Christmas motif is basically non-existent outside of the marketing, I wouldn't be surprised if some producer asked for it to get mentioned a couple of times so they could justify ripping off Die Hard for the trailer edit.
Rating: this is the real b-movie shit.
