Josh Duhamel wakes up in a Mexican hospital with post-traumatic amnesia (but soon discovers he has 'special skills') and finds himself being hunted down in the hospital by a local Cartel as he tries to find his identity, the truth and also survive in this underpowered action-thriller. Essentially, the film is a rather basic extended fight sequence set in various locations within the hospital; Duhamel growls his way through the bone-crunching fights and sells them quite effectively, Nick Nolte barely makes it through his lines, and the film offers nothing beyond its low-bar remit. John Wick and John Woo hang heavy over this film which does not come anywhere close to these but delivers straightforward uncomplicated action for undemanding genre fans.
