"Those Who Wish Me Dead" has all the right ingredients for a bone-crushing thrill ride: action, ruthless villains, and a fantastic big screen return from Angelina Jolie. Sadly, the results feel hollow and mechanical, and the dramatic portions of the film are disappointingly unfulfilling.

Watch Jolie fight raging fire and enraged hitmen

Action thriller about a teen being chased by assassins and receiving help from an operator (Angelina Jolie) of a fire lookout tower. Complicating matters is a raging forest fire inching closer and closer to their location. Jolie is fine with what little material she's given. It's a pretty simple story that clocks at ninety minutes. Aiden Gillen and Nicholas Hoult are built up as efficient killers but they often get surprised easily. Jon Bernthal fares better as a coworker of Angelina Jolie forced to make tough decisions. A surprise standout is a pregnant lady who can protect herself well in a fight. Tyler Perry makes a cameo out of nowhere as a shady villain. That's not revisited. It's a small tidy thriller that doesn't overstay its welcome. But it could had been a bit more interesting.

Yes, the Maleficent films had some action, but the Disney origin films were more about CG than kicking ass. But she's back and also the best part of Those Who Wish Me Dead - playing a wilderness survival expert who finds herself in charge of a young boy, who himself is the focus of a dangerous duo willing to do just about anything to take him out - or at least the damning evidence he possesses. But despite a solid premise and some big-name stars, Taylor Sheridan's Those Who Wish Me Dead fails to ignite much excitement and is ultimately a bit of a letdown.

Our story is thus - Jolie is Hannah, veteran forest fire-fighting smoke jumper/survival …
