Arizona Republic -
The action is entertaining enough, and it's kind of fun to follow the intricate plotting and planning of the jobs.

Movieline -
Mostly, The Mechanic creaks and groans as it goes through the motions, and not even its lavish violence - which includes much smashing of heads and a nasty screwdriver stabbing - is particularly electrifying.

|
ReelViews -
Adequate light entertainment for those who enjoy thrillers, but it is uneven and the underwhelming ending will disappoint those who enjoyed the delicious irony served up by its predecessor.

Empire -
Better than "The Transporter" but not as much fun as "Crank".
|
|
Village Voice -
Jason Statham bares his six-pack before speaking his first line in this humorless, efficient remake of the 1972 Charles Bronson hitman movie.
