Johnny Yong Bosch's debut as director and star is a solid hit. He plays the vigilante Spades, who's hunting a crime syndicate while a detective named James Bishop hunts him, and people are fully on board with his gritty, committed performance. The plot itself feels pretty familiar for a vigilante-vs-syndicate story, which a few found a bit thin, but that barely puts a dent in the overall enthusiasm. This is a straightforward, well-executed action thriller that delivers exactly what it promises.
