Wrath of Man is, at its core, a revenge film par excellence, elevated above its peers in the crowded genre of action movies by a clever script, airtight plotting and a captivating non-linear narrative, centered on lead actor (and frequent Guy Ritchie collaborator) Jason Statham's role as Patrick Hill - referred to throughout the film under the given nickname "H". The continual unveiling of both Hill's past and motivations is itself a masterclass in exposition of the "show don't tell" variety.
