Monkey Man comes to us from lead star Dev Patel marking this his directorial debut. Here we follow an anonymous young man who’s only path is vengeance as he plunges his way through the slums of India against the corrupt leaders who stripped his life away. To sum up this film as a whole, there was action before Dev Patel and now there is action after Dev Patel.  Was very interested in this once the reviews started coming in. Plus, Dev Patel has been a solid actor since his days in Skins, so I was curious to see whether he has the juice for being either an action actor or a director. It turned out he's got a penchant for both. Monkey Man doesn't break any new ground when it comes to One Man Army revenge films, but Patel manages to do it in brutal style thanks to some highly impressive set-pieces and a unique setting of political turmoil in India. I'm so very glad Jordan Peele did the smart thing and managed to get this saved from being utterly disposable Netflix Content tha
