I think Jason Statham has the makings of a star. Great screen presence, and if the writing delivers, he can even act when he wants to. But he keeps starring movies that look like they were written by a team of 7th graders. Except for MEG. I think 3rd graders actually wrote that one.
It is possible to make a smart action/thriller, but it seems to be a bit of a lost art these days. The rare ones that do come along all seem to star Liam Neeson.
I thought Jason Statham was the main star in Beekeeper. What did I miss?
he was.
I noticed something unfold in the movie...the STORY, is actually based on reality. The Jemma redgrave/offspring team are quite recognizable. I thot this was glaring so after the flick I did a quick google and yep, me and the entire beekeeper watching population made the connection.
It was actually easier than realizing 'cloverfield' was a remake/steal of 'miracle mile'
Movie was good, $20 good on pay per view?.............ehhh
If they saw the name of the movie in the movie that is a bad sign (movie will suck), they used Beekeeper way way way too much. Too many 6 on 1 fight scenes and of course Jason beats them all. Thousands of rounds fired throughout the movie by navy seal types yet again Jason gets grazed once.
I have. It wasn't as good as LOCK STOCK, but it was good. It also came out 24 years ago. How many good movies has Statham been in since?
Snatch is a good movie to watch, if you want to see, how Statham changed his image. In snatch, his character is vague nothing, really.
Actor progressed quite a bit, from that to a major presence in action movies.

ok now that I have more time, and only including the ones I saw
ghosts of mars (altho that was Henstridges flick), the transporters 1 and 2, revolver, parker, wild car, crank 1, didnt like 2, iti job, mechanic and the meg. now keep in mind, I am NOT expending a 'sad clown of life' performance. I am expecting bums to be beat. And beat they are and he pulls it off more so than a van damme movie (like I just watched hard target again last night more so for Yancy Bulter and I did not remember his fight scenes sucking so much...)

I loved Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels. I also enjoyed it more than I enjoyed Snatch, though I liked both of them.
