This movie is seriously fantastic! It has an actual plot that’s great to follow (with no holes in it), it’s the perfect amount of time at only 1.5hrs and the ending was awesome! Go see this movie, Liam Neeson and the other actors were amazing!

The movie displays the measured pacing and tautness marking many of Eastwood's films, and Neeson delivers an Eastwood-style performance while also revealing an emotional vulnerability that proves fully relatable. It's easy to see how his distinctive combination of mature rugged masculinity and Irish soulfulness has made him a perfect action hero for these complicated times.

Although Neeson has a nice rapport with young costar Jacob Perez, there’s no escaping the formulaic storyline featuring uncomplicated good guys and abundantly villainous bad guys.

Neeson has certainly starred in worse action vehicles than The Marksman, but rarely have they been more forgettable.
