I’m kind of interested in checking out The Mechanic. Not for Jason Statham. But I’m curious to see if the film takes advantage of Ben Foster’s innate “mad dog” quality. If you’ve seen 3:10 to Yuma, you know what I’m talking about. He overdid it in that flick, but a macho actioneer like The Mechanic would be the perfect outlet for that persona, don’t you think? The trailer seems to indicate he’s delivering an understated performance, which I think could be a mistake.

Thoughts?
