Re: Welcome to the Punch
The best thing about this film was probably its potential. Unfortunately, from characters to plot to locations, everything was just skimmed over. And then those empty streets? All those guys shooting but barely able to hit anything? At least this guy sitting few rows in front of me had a good ol' chuckle during the "grandma scene".
5.5/10

I saw this movie twice, because I wanted to give this movie a chance, but I was still left with the same sensation and the only scene that was worth seeing was the grandmas shooting

Re: Welcome to the Punch
I found this fairly watchable, felt a bit weak on the story side, good action and nice to see a British action/thriller with a good cast 7/10.
