This was the second time I watched this flick and it was just as entertaining as I remembered from the first time. The movie itself is a straight forward revenge plot, but it's filled with great scenes and a cool story.
The story is touching and easy to follow. There are some nice twists along the way and I did not see the last big twist coming at all. The well known recipe of ups and downs in the story is used. This method is a safe way to keep people interested throughout the flick and also helps the viewer get into the characters.
Acting is also overall decent with Mark Wahlberg yet again pulling of a great role. It's hard to exactly pinpoint why I like this movie so much, but I think it's a combination of great action and a fresh revenge plot story. Combined with a large cast of different characters there is something to like for everyone. This is no masterpiece but highly entertaining non the less 7/10
