I was bored and scrolled through available NetFlix movies. I watch the trailer which does have an interesting premise. The movie chronicles the misadventures of a good-hearted man that provides a new life for witnesses to crimes.
So I watch this and kept waiting for it to get interesting but... it never happens. There are quite a few unbelievable scenarios such as this hitman that will kill anyone for even looking at them the wrong way. And it's set in modern times and yet a pay phone is always available. When has anyone ever used a payphone in the past 10 years?
Plus the whole story just is not engaging at all. It's a shame because the premise has a lot of potential.

Plot summary
Kyle Braddock has spent the last decade moving witnesses over the border to Mexico and has always avoided confrontation or suspicion until now. Not only has he been framed for kidnapping but there's a malevolent and unrelenting figure on his trail and he is falling in love with his latest passenger, who has a dark secret that completely goes against all of his moral beliefs. Now he must protect the first person he has cared about in over ten years, discover who he is as a man and outrun a mysterious killer who is more akin to a force of nature, with an ever increasing path of human collateral in his wake.

How did they blow an interesting premise?
Worth Watching At Least One Time
04/24/2019 It started out OK but it wasn't that great, then it got interesting and overall it turned out to be a fairly decent watch.
Details. dialogue, drama - all MIA
The acting was mostly poor but the direction and production were what was in witness protection with this movie. The dialogue is downright awful and there are so many details of credulity strained I can't list them it was so non-stop. It takes a well written story to make a compelling movie. This was clearly thrown together and by an apparent amateur to boot.
The concept was potentially interesting, but it fell apart early in the movie. Then the victim turns out to be a second perp, a hitman (woman) who becomes hellbent on beating the other hitman to the target, for no reason but what? Male ego? Good grief.
This is the worst movie I've seen in a good long while.
