I didn't want to say more because I did not want to reveal that Gibson's character doesn't survive the film. Ridiculous ending is right.

A couple of the action scenes are terrific, and the Ray Winstone character is interesting and well played, as you say. This thriller seems a labored attempt to recapture the magic of "Taken." Maybe Gibson turned that film down and, by way of punishing himself for being so stupid, chose to subject himself to the self-flaggelation of starring in this mess.
