Arthur Bishop (Charles Bronson) is a mob hit man who operates in a world of his own... an uncompromising world where conventional rules of morality don't apply and where one wrong move could cost him his life! He's always worked alone but as age catches up with him, Bishop takes on a competent and ruthless apprentice (Jan-Michael Vincent) the son of a previous victim. Against the advice of his superiors, Bishop teaches him everything he knows and together they become an unmatchable team of globe-trotting killers...until the pupils' ruthlessness puts him on a collision course with his teacher.

Product Information

Jason Statham stars in director Simon West's action retread of Michael Winner's 1972 revenge thriller (which featured Charles Bronson in the lead role). Arthur Bishop earns his living as a 'mechanic', a euphemism for hitman that betrays the precision and emotional detachment with which he goes about his business.

Their partnership develops in fits and starts (and several deaths), but Bishop's boss Dean Sanderson makes it clear he's not happy with the nascent partnership's latest assassination. So, with all the main players inherently suspicious trained killers, and various motives for murder in the air, it won't take much to spark bloodshed - and that catalyst comes with an unexpected sighting at an airport...
