This week, Trevor sits down to do a solo review of James Nunn\'s, One Shot (2021)!

\\n

Headlined by martial arts superstar Scott Adkins, the film is an incredibly ambitious military action flick, deftly constructed to look and feel like a single continuous take.

\\n

The 3rd collaboration between director and star Adkins, the film represents yet another leap forward in the careers of both professionals, demonstrating that hard work and thoughtful planning can yield incredible results, even with a relatively low budget and a 20 day shoot.

\\n

Not merely the product of a production \\u201cgimmick,\\u201d One Shot is an exceptional action film that executes and adheres to it\'s premise, conveying legitimate drama as well as violent action spectacle with equal intensity and sincerity.
