No real punch

DVD: Welcome to the Punch Reviewed by: Samantha Keogh Review made possible by: SterKinekor

I tried watching this movie twice but have yet to make it all the way through since both times the insides of my eyelids became quite fascinating.

Former criminal Jacob Sternwood is forced to return to London from his Icelandic hideaway when his son is involved in a heist gone wrong.

This gives detective Max Lewinsky one last chance to catch the man he has always been after.

As they face off, they start to uncover a deeper conspiracy they both need to solve in order to survive.

I wasn’t wildly excited by this movie and it has for the most part received negative reviews including: “Empty, pointless and stupid, the barrage of gunfire called Welcome to the Punch is another unappealing entry in the overworked British gangster genre.”

Some viewer have enjoyed it describing it as: “A real knockout of an action movie that delivers some solid fire-power and star-power.

“It’s a stunning, gripping and intelligent action-thriller.

“It’s stylish, compelling and filled with twist and turns that just keep you going right to the very end.”
