-It is completely different from his Taken trilogy.
-Liam Neeson's character is called the "gravedigger" for a reason. He is a mob hitman who just wanted to protect his son.
-Despite the violent action scenes, it is still about family.
-Common plays a ruthless assassin. Common?!? The rapper?!? I was only told that he is really a rapper. He really convinced me that he is a stone-cold killer.
-Liam Neeson still kick ass.
Just one comment. Liam Neeson's character and the story itself has similarities with John Wick. Overall, it is a good action movie.

Warner Bros. Pictures has rolled-out the main poster and character banners of its upcoming action thriller “RunAllNight.” The four character banners individually highlight stars Liam Neeson, Ed Harris, Joel Kinnaman and Common.
Directed by Jaume Collet-Serra (“Unknown,” “Non-Stop”), “RunAllNight” also stars Vincent D’Onofrio.
In the film, Brooklyn mobster and prolific hit man Jimmy Conlon (Neeson), once known as The Gravedigger, has seen better days. Longtime best friend of mob boss Shawn Maguire (Harris), Jimmy, now 55, is haunted by the sins of his past—as well as a dogged police detective (D’Onofrio) who’s been one step behind Jimmy for 30 years. Lately, it seems Jimmy’s only solace can be found at the bottom of a whiskey glass.
But when Jimmy’s estranged son, Mike (Kinnaman), becomes a target, Jimmy must make a choice between the crime family he chose and the real family he abandoned long ago. With Mike on the run, Jimmy’s only penance for his past mistakes may be to keep his son from the same fate Jimmy is certain he’ll face himself…at the wrong end of a gun. Now, with nowhere safe to turn, Jimmy just has one night to figure out exactly where his loyalties lie and to see if he can finally make things right.
“RunAllNight” is distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.
