Can't lie, this looks like a ton of fun: Monkey Man | Official Trailer (youtube.com)

And there is reason to believe it could be good beyond a fun trailer: it was originally set for netflix release but Jordan Peele saw a screening and thought it was good enough that he got his production company involved to buy it out for a theatrical release.

Looks a bit formulaic, and overly choreographed fight scenes is getting a bit tired, but still looks interesting enough to give it a chance. The Jaan Wick comment above seems appropriate.

Dev Patel directs Dev Patel, and Sharlito Copley is usually fun in genre fare like this.

Looks like it could be a good time, and certainly insulated against the usual critics.

Dunno if anyone here has seen it but it's out for purchase and (very expensive) rent on digital.

I watched Monkey Man last night. I've been looking forward to this one since I saw the trailer. Unfortunately while the fight scenes were entertaining the rest of the film was disappointing, imo.
