The Protégé

— A fairly convoluted cat-and-mouse thriller that spends as much time on backstory as story. Ends up, it’s just another story about assassins, revenge, and a lot of blood. The action’s good, and the cast could be good, but the story’s just too cloudy to work well. [Amazon Prime streaming.]
