"The Mechanic" An action packed thrill ride that's very enjoyable!
By: Erik Pullum
4.5 out of 5 StarsArthur Bishop (Jason Statham) is a problem solver. Something is broke, he fixes it. A mechanic, but for humans. When he "fixes" you, you don't get back up. When his longtime friend Harry Mckenna (Donald Sutherland) is killed Bishop, with some reservations, takes in Mckenna's son. Steve, played by Ben Foster, is a loser. Kind of whiny feel sorry for me kid who most of the movie you might want to just punch in the face. He works out though and the two eventually seek to get to the bottom of Harry's death.
I consider this a total package guy movie. There are laughs, fights, guns, a few women, and the only thing you won't find is boredom. Warning for parents; there are a few scenes of nudity and much cussing. As usual these add nothing to the story, but as all movies seem to do this today it is to be expected. The biggest drawback? It's length. The inventive ways that the mechanics find to execute their missions leave you wondering what else they could have done.
Statham brings his typical B.A. charisma to the role. His background in real life makes him very believable in roles like this. Many actors attempt to bring a vulnerable emotion to roles such as this, and often it just gets in the way of your perception of the character. Men want their heroes to be like Bishop: Strong, Tough, Confident, and Decisive. There isn't room for a "feminine" side to these guys. Ben Foster plays the cocky, "poor me" character well, and as he learns the trade, you start to like him a bit. It's nice also that they are at least a bit realistic in that all their plans do not go off perfect, and they do have to improvise.
Sutherland is wonderful in his role as an ageing assassin who maintains your respect. The writing of his character and Donald's portrayal is genius. Also of note are the villains/hits that have been well written in. It's amazing how with the little time they spend on each, you are really drawn in to wanting them to get what they deserve.
For all the guys out there, and any women that happen to like violence and/or Statham, check this movie out. It's great if you just want to sit back and have some fun. The Mechanic is definitely not going to make you think long and hard about the problems in the world today, and you know what? That's not a bad thing every once in awhile...

Sergio loves to mind fuck and he also becomes Jeffrey if you haven't seen this movie yet then you will not know what I'm talking about when i say he becomes Jeffrey.
THE JEFFREY(Himself)- is just the nice blowk down the road no ones afraid of jeffrey but the one thing I know about Jeffrey he has a gun.
LINES
- You all arrrrrre fucked
- This is your fucking moment! You only get one moment in life!
- I'm mond fucking you right now. I'm mind fucking the shit out of you.
- I hope you're wearing a condom, cause I have a dirty mind.
- Feel free to bring Professor Snape.
- I'm so shit faced!
- Yeah, I would... kiss her face.
- I need you to put this in your bottom hole.
- Why does it have balls!
- I think I've just been raped.
- That's Jeffrey's gun.
- I'm ALIVE!!!
- This adrenaline's crazy! I've never run so fast in my life!
- This is the longest hallway of all time!
- Where are my boxers?
The music it was awesome the music they had for this
movie it just all fits so well seeing how almost all of
the music was song by Russell Brand.
The message that I got from this film was never give up and enjoy life and your loved ones and help friends get off drug and don't be enablers because enabling doesn't help anybody and don't run into the Jeffrey.
I just want to say If you haven't seen this movie you should and if your a fan of Russell Brand and Jonah hill like I am and you still haven't seen this film yet you are missing out it pulled off the same outrageous humor from Superbad when it first came out and if you thought that was funny you will fall over and laugh your face off I'm gonna say Apatow did it again and thanks for a gut buster movie.
Thanks for reading
Adam Carder
