Statham knows how to fight. The action is great.
The dialogs and the plot... oh my God. This was all written by a 15 year old as a weekend project.
It's all beyond ridiculous.
Even Statham's usual delivery can't salvage the "zinger" phrases in this movie. Not even that.
Still, the action is good.
Watch it for the action. With beer. With friends around, making fun of all the silly and teenage-amateurish dialogs.
You'll walk out thinking that you should not have enjoyed this horrible movie, and that you can also be a Hollywood screenwriter. Easily.
By the way, they spent 40 million to do this... I can only imagine Statham walked out of the movie loaded.
Plot summary

Good action, incredibly silly
Good action and stupidity
Action flicks aren't known for their plots. That being said, is it possible to finally have at least somewhat plausible plotlines? I mean it's just so... stupid, I can't really .... My almost 80 year old parents know more about computers than these morons in the movies and many more examples of that.
The action is great, as usual in Statham movies. That's why I even considered to write a review. It's everything one might expect from his action flick. As always he is the one who carries the movie throughout, and despite all the stupidity, it actually works. You probably need to be pretty drunk, but when you are, it's actually fun.
So, as a one time entertainment, it's actually worth it.
Statham and action
Statham 8/10
Action 8/10.
Story 6/10
Agent Parker 1/10
The action and the story are great. Statham is fantastic.
Unfortunately, after that the other actors are bad or worse. Agent Parker was horrendous, shocking that she was even cast. If you can put her acting aside, then it's a pretty solid and enjoyable movie.
The Beekeeper is worth checking out if you enjoy action and Jason Statham. The movie is comparable to some of his better movies: transporter, the mechanic, crank, expendables. Again, for what it is and putting the bad supporting actors aside then it is enjoyable. Enjoy the action!
