Meanwhile, in our 4-star review, Digital Spy pointed out the similarities between Riders of Justice and Liam Neeson's Taken franchise.
We highlighted that both movies featured "the trope in which a female character dies in order to spur the lead male on to action" but added that Riders of Justice is "so much more than a Taken rip-off".
"While anyone who likes a good action film will undoubtedly feel no qualms about heading to the cinema to watch Mikkelsen kick criminal butt, we're pleased to report that Riders of Justice is far savvier than any Taken film, and most action films out there."
Riders of Justice is available to stream on Channel 4.
