The Beekeeper

Every scene with her was awful. Terrible delivery, unlikeable personality and the acting skills that belong in a bottom-of-the-barrel movie with no budget. The goofy outfits don't help either, (wait until you see her FBI outfit toward the end, cringe). Her and Ruby Rose should make a movie together so no one will watch it. On a side note- her FBI partner looks like the singer from SOTD. Chop Suey!

Statham delivers as usual and knows to stay in his lane. He plays the same character in all his movies but it's entertaining as usual. Jeremy Irons did fine too, I haven't seen much of him since...Die Hard with a Vengeance???

There's an explosion at the beginning of the movie that was laughingly bad...I thought I was watching a movie from The Asylum for a second. But then there's another explosion that looks really good a bit later on, so I'm confused there's such a big difference in the effects.

I see there's a sequel coming and hopefully they get better writers next time around because the only reason to watch this movie is Jason Statham and even then the story was kinda paper thin and borderline silly. Plus it was difficult having to listen to some of the dialogue from most of the characters as well.

A solid popcorn action flick. Jason is his standard typecast role, which you can't blame him for, he's a one trick pony but that one trick is entertaining.

The whole movie is a budget-bin version of John Wick, which again is ok if you accept it for what it is.

The main down fall is the casting of Emmy Raver-Lampan, who is just a stunningly bad actress. It's impossible to believe her on onscreen, even in a popcorn flick.

Jeremy Irons is a welcome sight and lends credibility to the film, even though he doesn't get much screen time.

Despite this I actually hope there's a sequel, fun action flicks are perfect beer and pizza viewing.

Verona Parker is easily one of the worst characters ever written for the screen, takes away everything this movie aspires to be. The actress also did a piss poor job and always had me cringing at the unrealistic and unreasonable choices she makes. If you'd delete that character entirely, this movie would've been a whole lot better in the long run.

Subject wise it's a very nice concept of a revenge thriller against scam call centers- but again, the whole govt mumbo jumbo makes it feel a whole run of the mill action BS from Hollywood mid tier movies. If the story had been awhole lot grounded, it would've done a whole lot better imo.

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.

The Beekeeper is a decently violent , sort of moronic Jason Bourne want-to-be. In it we get a Jason Statham who's more entertaining than the turgid "Wrath of Man", but falls short of his' action comedies , like "Snatch", "Expendables", and "Spy".

The action and violence are several notches above many other similar movies (though several floors below the likes of "John Wick" or "The Raid").

The movie tries to pretend it's a cerebral thriller , with commentary on avarice and political dirty dealings, but for the most part is a pretty plain revenge film.

The bad guys are annoying enough you look forward to their painful demises.

If you're looking to watch Jason Statham wander around and kill people , you could do worse.
