Man on fire - A review.

Well this movie was pretty awesome.
But at the start it took a while to get into.
But that did give a fair bit of background story on all the characters, which gave a good depth to the movie that is usualy lacking in most modern day "bang bang shoot shoot movies".
The movie is primarly about a body guard (denzel) who is in charge of keeping a wealthy car dudes daughter safe.
Did u know that there is a kidnapping ever 60 mins in Mexico City. (thats a true fact.)
70% of the people kidnapped dont survive. (Also true)
This movie tries to delve into the sinister side of corruption and betrayal that seems to infest the Mexican government / police force.
Denzel goes around getting the fuck shot out of him, after Dakota Fanning gets kidnapped.
He recovers... but is still plauged by his gaping wounds that dont stop bleeding for the rest of the movie.
My only thing which i had agaisnt the movie, there was no difinitive time between when the girl is kidnapped, before he extracts revenge.
So we dont really know how long he has been in hospital before he gets his killin' groove on.
First man in the chain of coruption finds him self with his hands taped to a steering wheel with his fingers left untaped.
He is awoken by a angry denzel who has a knife and a cigerete lighter (the car type),
denzel proceeds to ask the sanchez about info regarding the girl, everytime the wonrg answer is given, a finger is CUT FROM HIS HAND!!!!
then cauterized with the ciggie lighter.
the dude looses about 4 fingers then his car gets pushed of a cliff and explodes.
Dickface number 2 gets a shot gun to the kneee cap(s)[Both knee caps one at a time] then a 9mm in the chest.
Paco #3 gets a rpg thu the car infront of him, then get knocked out and awakes with his hands and feet gaff taped to a car with only his boxers on.
Denzel proceeded to ask him questions then informs him he has c4 and a timer in a plastic device shoved firmly up his ass.
He then has 5 mins to answer the angry black mans questions, which he does, but then gets the "shit" blown outa him....
mind the pun...
Then gringo (i know gringo is a term used to describe someone of non mexican birth by mexicans them selves but i have run outa words to desribe mexicans) #4 gets 4 of his fingers on 1 hand shot of with a nicely placed shoty blast at cloe range, then it all goes a little hazy, i think cause denzel is pretty much only just alive...
Then they get the girl back everyone smiles, and denzel gets into the enemys car and the movie kinda fades into the credits, And it turns out its based on a true story.
So there u go.

All in all i would recomend this movie..
It was quite good.
