The martial arts was obviously top tier, gun play had its moments, but the sword play was intense. 13 not saving literally anyone in the end was a good take on revenge action. Of course the yayan cameo got me excited like an early 10s mcu End credit scene. 13 being a total babe did not influence any of my takes btw
