Beckett

John David Washington is an American traveling through Greece with his girlfriend. They change their itinerary to visit the countryside as a way to avoid planned protests in the city. Along the way he gets in a car crash, sees something he "shouldn't", and then is in escape mode. Presumably he is an average guy pushed to the brink. This plays like The Fugitive, and a little bit of a revenge action movie like Taken. We get conspiracy and American projection of power and arrogance. And it feels like an action film going through the motions. 
3 stars (out of 5)
