Mutiny

The poster (the dark one with Statham looking left) makes it look like *Die Hard* (on purpose, I'm guessing), and the plot synopsis makes it sound like *Under Siege*.

I hoped Jason Statham's action-star appeal, decent fight choreography, and a handful of nasty, well-staged kills would be sufficient to distract me from ev...
