5.8 ?? come on guys that's not fair..


Come on the fight scenes were really well done, STEADY CAM, nice chinese boxing and furniture-style used by statham, fun to watch (and I know there were just two major fights but that was fine by me).
The characters were also interesting and fun (very nice acting from Stanley and Milo by the way).
I really believe for what it wanted to be and what it is, this movie deserves more than 5.8 stars.

5.8... man... that's Adam Sandler level...

I thought it was a good movie but it should not have been presented as an action movie, it was more of a drama with three good fights.

It's a good movie until the ending. The Sofia opening was also not necessary. But the middle 90% was pretty good.

Nonsensical ending ruined it.

Really liked it too just it was bit miss represented as was said, gave it a 8 its more the number this movie should be closer :) quite fun action and characters were quite fun.

5.8 is too low for this film, definitely.

This film had class.

I don't know why the statham fanbois are howling in distress. I thought it was a good respite from the usual beat bad guy up every 3 minutes. statham should make more film like this and get fanbois panties twisted

London is a good statham movie, it is rather different from him.

reply

No more than a 5 0 rom me. I didn't find it interesting at all. The fights scenes were good though.

reply

I think stath fans were expecting a typical Statham action flick, this was more like hummingbird/redemption and one of his better movies for my money solid 7 from me

reply

The problem is, those were no good fights at all. For a good fight you need at least a decent opponent. He just whipped the floor with everybody. Combine that with a lousy story and no amount of acting or choreography can save this movie from being way below average.

I enjoyed this more than anticipated. Statham's best film in recent years, along with Hummingbird. Should be a 6.0 at least.

You try to prove a point about people given Jason Statham movies bad ratings, then u use the Adam sandler card, Adam sandler movies are actually good 3 at the most i can think of are truly terrible, i am also a jason statham fan, not including the ones that are not at the cinemas yet i have watched every one of his movies, apart from six, and as much as i am a fan this was a rubbish, the end scene with the fork and the spoon probably was the best scene, there was no solid storyline, and im honestly surprised this isn't at around 4 but i hope they do make profit when it comes out in the uk over here, but i wont be investing my money into it, furious 7 will get mine.

piece of crap. deserved a 1.0. THE GUNMAN with Sean Penn is way better and thyat only gets a 5.6 here. IMDB ratings suck.
