The Beekeeper (2024)
7/10
Very entertaining, especially if you're a Statham fan.
3 February 2024
Adam Clay on the surface is a calm character, a man who keeps brees, but underneath he's part of a network of powerful, dangerous killers known as Beekeepers. One day a friend of his is taken by scammers, he vows to take revenge.

Once again, I find myself thoroughly entertained and very satisfied by one of Jason Statham's high octane, action films.

It's way over the top, and some of the dialogue is beyond abysmal, so corny, but the core essence is rather emotive, who hasn't been annoyed recently, hearing of some elderly person being scammed out of their life savings.

Some of the talk about bees is honestly cringe worthy, but that's the charm of the film, it's not trying to take itself too seriously.

Lots of great action scenes, very well staged, and Statham is just so cool.

On the debit side, Agent Parker isn't a particularly good character, and some of the American accents are a little dodgy, Jemma Redgrave's in particular is a little dodgy.

I really did enjoy it.

7/10.
