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.

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.

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.

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.

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!
