Looks like Legacy of Lies just got an Action Director, in the form of the amazing Tim Man.

Scott Adkins and Tim Man must be the hardest working duo in show business. They’re never not working.

I just hope these projects are up to snuff. Could they be spreading themselves too thin?

Got faith in these two talents, that they will deliver. Good point though, I think Adkins and Tim Man havebeen cloned, how else can two men be so busy?.

 

Many people in the entertianment world, struggle to get regular work of any kind. These guy's are clearly making the most/best of being in demand.

Adkins simply cannot get away from generic movie posters, it seems...

While the action looks largely gun-based, I thought this was an excellent trailer. It all looks very slick and it’s nice to see Adkins speaking in his native accent.

I wasn’t all that interested prior to now. This looks pretty great.

It’s been a long time coming but this will hit digital platforms on July 28th.

The short answer is yes.  At least for this particular effort.  I got through watching it over the weekend, and posted a full review over at COF -

Yikes. May have to wait until this one hits streaming services for free.

Got to watch this Saturday evening. I found it enjoyable. It's a spy thriller, but Adkins gets to do some John Wick styled action sequences. I liked them, and they didn't overstay their welcome. More of an homage than a blatant ripoff. The few fights are fairly brutal in execution, and personally I found his major fight scene against Chee Leon Sua to be absolutely worth the price of the dvd. My only qualm is that the finale is more drama-driven than action packed, but it suits the story.
