If filmmakers were put on trial for hackery, a good prosecutor might ask director Miller why The Prince contains no discernible prince but does feature a closing-credit shout-out to "Prince Yoohanhwesa."

1.5/5

This isn't a passion project for anyone involved. It's a by-the-numbers affair that's landing on the right side of the ledger book. It's about mercenaries on both sides of the camera.

Unless you're a fan of yawn-worthy shootouts and showdowns, "The Prince" is a "Taken" retread hardly indicative of any special set of skills.

2/5

The greatest effort seems to have gone into getting the look of the fight scenes correctly in an otherwise bland film.

Originality, either in terms of writing or direction, in in short supply in this assembly-line vigilante thriller.

An ex-killer out to save his daughter from the drug house - he's a good shot. Her college roommate rides shotgun and goes from aloof to unrealistically invested. Bruce Willis phones it in as the protagonist.
