Reviews
Screen Daily - A sequel would seem a highly likely prospect., Digital Spy - Director Love shoots London with a glossy sheen - helicopter shots soar over Tower Bridge and the Gherkin to a blaring Hans Zimmer-like score from Lorne Balfe. There are some cracking action set pieces, too, like a shootout that sweeps through Trafalgar Square, a tense cat-and-mouse in an underground car park and a caravan-wrecking finale that will have Jeremy Clarkson salivating.
Consumer Advice
Contains strong language, twice very strong, and strong bloody violence
