Lacking originality
The Gray Man would like to be Mission Impossible but the numerous comic book action sequences lack any originality and the humour is laboured. Tom Cruise has nothing to fear from Ryan Gosling whose wooden performance is the worst aspect of a very bad film. In a film that generally keeps it light, there is an unnecessarily graphic torture scene, and unpleasant scenes of the physical abuse of children. The highly unsatisfying ending gives the impression the producers, with considerable hubris, are hoping for a sequel. I hope that Netflix exercise some quality control and ensure this over long, over wrought mishap of a movie is never repeated.
