Like "The Transporter" bad, or worse?

Guy Pearce is 100% more entertaining than Statham in everything he's ever done. Also this had Peter Stormare.
That doesn't mean either one is worth watching.

Well of course. I was just speaking in relative overall movie terms, sans the actors, producers, etc. I admit that I'll pop on a Statham-flick for the ridiculous lulz (such as being able to ramp a car over a wreck yard, flip the car in a spiral in order to have the crane hook grab the bomb attached to the bottom of the car off, land the car back on all four tires without a crash, and ride off into the distance while the bomb explodes beyond him   ), but is this movie about on the same level? |

So, the only Statham movie I'll allow to be called "popcorn-worthy" is Crank - which was provably good in terms of brainless action flicks.
This is not provably good. There is no reason whatsoever to watch this, over say - the opera scene in Fifth Element on loop for 90 minutes.

Statham hasn't done anything good since Snatch really.
The Expendables perhaps, in a raw schlock type of way

That was a satisfying moment of cinema right there. The best part? Those are real.Now there's a copywriter who loves their job: Assault rifles are all well and good, but when you really need to tear a person to pieces, nothing fills the air with metal quite like a combat shotgun. And for those times when a regular combat shotgun isn't generating enough flying body parts, connoisseurs turn to what must be the most outrageously devastating hand-held anti-personnel murder machine in existence: the Atchisson Assault Shotgun, or AA-12. |
