Point Blank is an intense thriller, that is exciting and extremely well put together. The film follows a familiar formula, but it has a fresh spin on it, I am sure there will be comparisons to things like Taken or even something like Nick Of Time.

[AFFFF ’12] Et Soudain Tout Le Monde Me Manque (The Day I Saw Your Heart)
