If you’re a fan of action then 2023 is the year for you, as plenty of fast-paced and violent movies have been receiving rave reviews.

Recently, everyone has been talking about Sisu, a brutal Nazi-killing movie that was produced by the same studio as John Wick.

But this modern-day action film may be even more up your street.

The movie, titled Bull, follows a gangster enforcer (played by Neil Maskell) who manages to survive an attempt on his life.
