  • Sequel: He goes to Nigeria to get the scammer Prince that ripped him off and failed to send him his $37 million.
  • @theplopthickens
    It's usually a call center in India. Just an office with a bunch of cubicles.
  • Found this film much more entertaining than I thought it'd be. Hilariously entertaining to be honest, seeing Statham tie a man to a truck and send it off a bridge into water to drown, or have him with clapping along with the scammers only to beat the living sh*t out of them straight after was just so hilariously ridiculous that I loved every second of it 😂 So glad you two could review this. Certainly not a groundbreaking film or anything. But if you just let yourself go with it then it's a fun watch. (Also I love "The Rock" poster in the background. Brilliant brilliant film)

    Based on your recommendation I just watched it. And my only complaint is I wanted more of it! It was a legit kick ass movie. Like you said “everything the expendables wishes it was”. Lol. And Jeremy Irons was awesome! I’d watch a sequel to this. Or even a “prequel”. Something that shows how the beekeepers system actually works. It may be tuff to do a prequel with Staham, and it may be even tougher to figure out how to fit him in a sequel. But if they figured it out with John McLain and Die Hard I’m pretty sure they could come up with something for this.

    This feels like a much bigger channel than it appears to be. I really like it, though, and I expect it to blow up soon.
  • @S0ldSH0RT
    I love Statham movies. They're so bad but good- real guilty pleasures. I can't wait to see this one!
  • @bloodrunsclear
    With the success of John Wick I think we’re in for more movies like this: fun dumb action. I’m for it :)
  • @sunshinestate28
    This movie was freaking incredible and I loved it!! Definitely rewatching it in the future.

    I usually really like Statham movies but this one was rough. I enjoyed the action, of course, but the story was too big for what it was... and now there's no opportunity for it to be a series since it links to the VERY TOP of the food chain. Also, as an avid fan of Criminal Minds I was really bothered by the main character: The woman, her partner was fine. Her lack of professionalism, the on-the-case-despite-deeply-personal-connections violation, inconsistency in leadership and skill level (like, girl, you're an cybecrimes analyst, why are you blowing past the SWAT team in jeans like you Rambo?) It all bothered me. ALSO- what a missed opportunity to not call this movie Queen Slayer and make the president totally complicit. Too similar to current optical events maybe?
  • @OffTheCover
    You've convinced me! I'll give it a watch. Good job guys!
  • @whitworth5s248
    I don't know if I like the "regular guy turns out to have been a retired elite agent the entire time" trope that is getting a bit overused in action movies these days. In Taken and John Wick it was relatively fresh as a concept, but it was getting pretty tired by the time Nobody came out, and I found that movie suffered a bit from it. But a group of secret agents who call themselves Beekeepers, only for one to retire and become a literal beekeeper is so on the nose it's a little cringey to be honest.
  • @fernan2342
    You telling me the villain is just a greedy a**hole and has not tragic background? Impossible!
  • @ajax1612
    I just assumed this was some crap throwaway movie as well, but glad it was decent, thanks for the review!
  • @gocsa
    Come on, guys, the Crank movies are BRILLIANT.
  • Oh man, I thought it was going to be an adaptation of Worm😑. This film is good, though. Not perfect, but enjoyable and honest with what it is.
  • @MrDman21
    I haven't seen this but it looks like a throwback to those action movies I grew up with. They showed The Mechanic 2 with Jason Statham the other night on TV. I've heard Josh Hutchinson is terrible as the villain. But this definitely should have come out instead of Expendables 4. 🐝🐝🐝🐝
  • @wausjackbauer128
    Hey y'all. Hope you review "Anatomy of a Fall" I just watched it today, excellent film
  • @gzz8551
    We are now at a point with revenge movies where an internet scammer in a call centers is the main villain. We went from war lords, gangsters, drug barons, evil dictators to THAT!? Wow. 😂 Just thinking of the carnage I could cause around the world if I were to engage with my Junk Email inbox!
