Re: The Scott Adkins appreciation thread
I just watched Avengement (2019). It's currently on Netflix US. I liked it. Not a whole lot of plot, but several good--and very brutal--fight scenes, so pretty much what I was looking for. I noticed that Adkins' co-star from The Debt Collector has a small part in this as a police detective.

Is that Tom Berenger? I thought he was dead.

It looks like Adkins and White filmed this movie back in January from the post I made Post #58
For a straight to video movie, I'm surprised it's being held until 2024.

Sony just dropped the U.S. trailer. On digital January 16. Looks pretty fun.

One More Shot was pretty good. It is a direct continuation of the first.
I hope Sony releases it on Blu-ray, but considering how they have treated some other recent DTV releases, I doubt it. I'll likely have to import it (if it even gets a release at all).
It still blows my mind that a streamer hasn't signed an overall deal with Adkins to produce and star in lower-budget ($30mil or less) action movies. There is no reason the One Shot films couldn't be as popular as Extraction.

I just finished One More Shot. Pretty good, pretty good action and fight choreography for one of his DTV movies. I was a little surprised that it was a direct sequel to the first movie. It literally picks up right where the last movie left off. I guess they got a little more money and advertising than the first movie since Destination Films distributed it, who are owned by Sony.
Minor complaint. It sort of ends on a cliffhanger. It didn’t feel like the plot was resolved. I looked at Adkins upcoming projects and there is no sequel in the works yet.
