This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
Chan was convincing as a distraught father. He should have at least been nominated for an oscar. This movie was much better than critics thought.
I did not expect this film to be as good as it was. From the way the film has been shot to the excellent quality of acting displayed by the characters. I am no expert film critic, but I can safely say that this was an amazing movie. I highly recommend watching this film!!
This is a more mature movie from the Jackie Chan vault, and it is nice to see him branch out like this and move away from the usual slapstick comedy, although that is very lovely as well."The Foreigner" has a good story that follows a good script, although it was somewhat generic and linear.The characters in the movie were quite nicely fleshed out. Although I didn't really grasp the accent that Pierce Brosnan was using throughout the movie as it sounded a bit too forced, but then again I am not sure if some Irish people actually speak that way.While this is not your average Jackie Chan movie then there were enough action in it to make it entertaining.All in all, "The Foreigner" was an entertaining movie.
Nowadays, it's extremely rare to see an action/thriller movie that gives meaning to the action. The characters that fight and engage in a river of bullets and large explosions that open the mouth of hell itself should be for a good reason and give the viewer a chance to feel something for the character to why they're doing it. The Foreigner (2017) is a good example of a movie that does this perfectly. Political corruption, moral atrocities, and innocent lives lost to unfair circumstances can be fought and changed by one man. The character of Ngoc Minh Quan portrayed by Jackie Chan is done extraordinarily well. One thing we all should keep in mind, a man that seeks revenge and has nothing left to lose is true terror. You will feel that in your mind as you're watching this movie from beginning to the end, I promise you.
