A Working Man (2025)

Review: A Working Man (2025)

Movie Poster

Levon Cade left behind a decorated military career in the black ops to live a simple life working construction. But when his boss's daughter, who is like family to him, is taken by human traffickers, his search to bring her home uncovers a world of corruption far greater than he ever could have imagined."A working Man" is an accidental satire, of the US action film genre. Working class guy, who served in the military and now works for a migrant families construction company, looks to save their angelic daughter, the vision of perfection, from the evil Russian human traffickers. Everything is an exaggeration. From the notion of the working class guy, a rough diamond, a patriot, with a heart of gold. The migrant family with the dutiful, over achiever on steroids daughter, the true inheritors of the American dream. Even, the minimum wage construction workers, who are told to make sure they "keep their fingers" (you can see occupational health and safety is a big thing) are so happy they look like they belong in the original production of "Snow White" (the real one, not the hideous remake). As for the Russians, well surprise, surprise, they are brutal, cruel and stupid. No one saw that coming, right? I won't mix words, this is cliched, biased, condescending, pro Western military, jingoistic, crap. Interesting too, how venture capitalists "State Street" make a brief appearance, in the opening credits. If they thought this would lift their profile, well all I can say is it didn't "do it, for me". Sorry guys. Is there an upside? In short no. Even the action has a ham fisted, "seen it all before", air of stale, stagnation, about it. In summary, a horrible facsimile of superior action films, you have probably seen before. Loaded down with trite cliches, stereotypes and jarring biases. One to avoid.
