Accident Man (2018) Movie Review!

Accident Man Review

The reviewer expected Accident Man to be an uncomfortable, forgettable B-movie after seeing its trailer, but was won over almost immediately.

The film follows a skilled hitman whose loved one is murdered by his own crew. He sets out to take on the London underworld and hold those responsible to account.

What Stands Out

The reviewer found the film highly entertaining. Its dialogue has funny moments without relying on nonstop jokes, and some action scenes blend comedy into the choreography. They especially praised the clearly filmed fights: wide shots make the stunt work easy to follow, while a few fresh moves give the action a distinctive feel.

The reviewer also enjoyed the narration, brisk pacing, and colorful cast of assassins, each with a distinct personality. Although they felt the plot could use more detail, they appreciated the background provided for the lead and supporting characters.

Performances and Verdict

Ashley Greene’s performance was a welcome surprise, and Scott Adkins—who also worked on the screenplay—made the lead role his own. By the end, the reviewer had a blast and would happily watch the film again, if not for a backlog of other movies.

Personalities discussed: The Movie Oracle (reviewer), Scott Adkins, Ashley Greene.
