I think this movie wasn't very popular because it came across as pro-gun, and this was a year into the first Trump administration. If you think of it in the same terms as the Die Hard movies, though, it's actually pretty good, and it was possibly Bruce Willis' last good role before he became incapacitated due to old age. This is a reboot of a 1974 Bronson film with this title, and it does a pretty good job of keeping the same theme, but updating it. The always-entertaining Vincent D'Onofrio plays a supporting role.
The 1974 film is extremely pro-gun, it's funny how much they toned it down
The only thing I remember about the 1974 version is Jeff Goldblum as a hooligan in a "jughead" hat.
