The Gray Man is one of those movies that takes you on a fast paced journey so fast you can barely catch your breath From the very first scene the film throws you into the thick of the action without warning as if you've suddenly found yourself in a global manhunt with no chance of escape.
Ryan Gosling plays Sierra Six an elite secret agent who suddenly finds himself targeted by the same agency that employed him after uncovering dangerous information This is where the cat-and-mouse game begins but this isn't just any mouse he's a professional assassin who knows how to escape fight and think faster than anyone else.
In fact one of the films biggest surprises is Chris Evans as Lloyd a mad agent with no moral boundaries Far from the Captain America were all familiar with here we see him as a psychopath willing to do anything to eliminate his target which makes his confrontation with Gosling unnatural.
If you like professionally shot action this movie will be a treat for you From street chases to shootouts in impossible locations and even hand-to-hand combat that makes you feel like you're in the fight itself The direction gives each scene an amazing cinematic feel especially with the huge budget that clearly went into every shot.
The plot itself isn't entirely new secret agent who finds himself pursued by the same organization that trained him seen it before in films like Jason Bourne and Mission Impossible But the difference here is the fast paced presentation the outstanding performances and the visual style that make the film an enjoyable experience even if you were expecting some of the events.
