An ex-special services veteran, down on his luck and desperate for work, takes a job as a security guard at a run-down mall in a rough area of town. On his first night on the job, he opens the door to a distraught and desperate young girl who has fled the hijacking of a Police motorcade that was transporting her to testify as a witness in a trial. Hot on her heels is the psychopathic hijacker and his team of henchmen, who will stop at nothing to extract and eliminate the witness.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐½ (3.5/5)“Security,” a 2017 action film starring Antonio Banderas, delivers an engaging mix of thrills and tension, though it stumbles in areas that keep it from reaching its full potential.

The premise is straightforward: Banderas plays a security guard named Eddie who finds himself in charge of a mall security team during a major crisis. The film kicks off with a compelling setup as a group of heavily armed criminals attempts to capture a girl who holds vital info.

Banderas shines in his role, bringing a blend of charisma and grit that keeps you rooting for him. The supporting cast, featuring talents like Ben Kingsley and Lily Rabe, adds depth to the story, although some characters feel underdeveloped.

Visually, “Security” boasts some well-choreographed action sequences, but they sometimes lack the polish you’d expect from bigger productions. The cinematography is decent, with sweeping shots that effectively capture the chaos unfolding within the mall.

Overall, "Security" is an entertaining watch that offers enough suspense and action to keep audiences engaged. It’s not ground-breaking, but for fans of the genre or Banderas’ work, it’s worth a view. With stronger writing and character development, this film could have elevated itself into a higher tier.

Home Alone adult version, but the dumbest thing is that at the beginning no one could use weapons but then they were swat level, but overall nice action movie with Antonio Banderas as main character.
