“Mechanic: Resurrection” (*** out of four) was a dynamite sequel to the 2011 remake starring Jason Statham as a retired assassin forced to come out of retirement when the love of his life (Jessica Alba) is kidnapped by a ruthless businessman (Sam Byzantine) who wants him to kill 3 targets. Dazzling stunts, lots of hand-to-hand combat, and beautiful scenery make this not only better than the 2011 original but one of Statham’s best action movies ever. And casting Jessica Alba was definitely a plus! Tommy Lee Jones also has a small but crucial role as one of Statham’s targets.
