The Mechanic : movie review (2011) pics images star cast



The Mechanic is a 2011 American thriller film starring Jason Statham as the title character. The film, directed by Simon West, is a remake of the 1972 film of the same name that starred Charles Bronson. Statham stars as Arthur Bishop, a professional assassin who hunts down the murderers of his friend Harry (Donald Sutherland). Though Bishop works alone, he reluctantly lets Harry's son Steve (Ben Foster) accompany him in the hunt, training him as an assassin. It was released in the United States and Canada on January 28, 2011.

The cast of the film is:
  • Jason Statham as Arthur Bishop
  • Ben Foster as Steve McKenna
  • Donald Sutherland as Harry McKenna
  • Tony Goldwyn as Dean Sanderson
  • Jeff Chase as Burke
  • Mini Anden as Sarah
Arthur Bishop (Jason Statham) is a mechanic, a professional assassin, one of the best. He's so good that when his organization hires him to take out his own mentor (Donald Sutherland), he goes about the job with his usual detachment and efficiency. But even hitmen have hearts and souls, and Bishop is no different. The closest thing he has to a relationship is a prostitute he visits on a regular basis, and he has begun to dream of escape. Instead he digs himself further in when he takes on Harry's son Steve (Ben Foster) as his apprentice, just so he can have someone to talk to.


Simon West's remake of the original Charles Bronson thriller is exactly what you might expect, exchanging introspection and suspense for amped up action sequences, giving up on existentialism for nihilism. On the other hand, taken in itself, it's not a bad modern action film, with at least an interest in characters, even if it doesn't know where to put that interest. Just on a purely action movie basis, when "The Mechanic" gets going it's not bad. West ("Con Air") is an old hand at this and knows how to put an action scene together. Bishop and Steve's escape from a high rise after a hit gone wrong is the highlight, fast paced and brutal. Unfortunately he's not as good at the suspense side of it, which a lot of the film is focused on, so much so that the big action finish is not the conclusion. It creates a schizophrenic film to say the least.
 

Steve is a troubled man, we're told. He's been bouncing around from job to job, not entirely sure what to do with himself. That is, until the first time he sees Bishop at work and realizes he can express his internal self-hatred outwards. He may be a burgeoning psychopath, creating a standard action movie dichotomy with Bishop. This would be all well and good if Steve didn't have a legitimate beef with Bishop, who did kill his father. While the film spends a decent and interesting amount of time teasing if Steve is going to find that out what he will do if he finds out, it's ultimate decision is so nihilistic it leaves a horrible taste in your mouth if you think about it for more than a few minutes.
