The Beekeeper

Not enough brutally killed scammers. I tell you, not enough.
The character of Agent Verona Parker is written to be very annoying.
Girl, you should cut down all that crap about the law. Your mother - a former teacher, and a very good person - [spoiler]killed herself[/spoiler] because of scumbags scammers. You should burn the city down to find all those filthy scumbags, girl, not running around chasing the man who will do justice.
Jason is good like honey.

Finally a movie that's worth watching. I enjoyed every minute. Now do a Wick cross-over. Thank you!
Oh and the first call center scam scene was one of the best I've ever seen!

Buzz bee :bee: This guy is amazing. It reminded me of the carrier in this movie. The action scenes are amazing. This guy really does this sport. Thank you for your efforts, a real actor and bee :bee:

I have to be honest and say that, if far left Hollywood had not turned out one woke turd after another but actually good movies as they used to a long time ago, this one might not have earned five out of five stars from me.

But since the Hollywood pedophiles have more or less ruined everything they touch the competition for good movies is more or less non-existent so here we go.

The movie is pretty much free of woke bullshit and far left preaching so that alone earns it at least two stars.

This movie is very much a John Wick style movie. Some dumbass criminals piss off the wrong guy and a fireworks display of martial arts and dead criminals follows.

Jason Statham, as Adam Clay aka The Beekeeper, is really at his best in this movie. He is a kick-ass, relentless, stone hard, killer focused on both revenge and the eradication of the human scum that preys on the weak and, in this case, stupid.

The bad guys, at least at the start, is an organization that runs on-line scams. When scamming the person that has taken Adam under her wings after his retirement it has unforeseen and tragic consequences.

Later in the movie this simple plot evolves, as the blurb states, to a national emergency due to the corrupt and criminal actors involved at high levels.

When I watched the movie I really thought that this entire scamming things was a bit unrealistic. I mean come on, people cannot be that stupid! But then I reminded myself that people also, allegedly, voted for a senile turnip brain with a kackling moron as vice president so I guess they can be.

As I wrote, Statham is really at his best. If we should compare with John Wick again, Statham is much more menacing and vengeful than Keanu Reeves ever was in John Wick.

I really like how the criminal asshats at all levels gradually gets their rightful, and usually terminal, punishment and that they most of the time gets to see and sweat as their doom approaches.

Also, the stunts are not at all as exaggerated and ludicrous as in the fourth John Wick installment. That does not mean that they are very realistic but then that is not really to be expected in this kind of action movie.

The story overall is not bad. It is an action movie type of story which means it is fairly simplistic, it has plot holes and it is not overly realistic but that is fine. It is good enough and it is Statham that carries the movie anyway.

This was indeed one of the best movies in a long time as far as I am concerned. Pure entertainment.

10/10 so so so over the top

This movie was made in the 1990s and has somehow been transported to 2024 lol….

Over the top
Camp as hell
Makes no sense

But it’s so good at all these things it makes it a 10/10 movie for me, it’s so so so bad, it makes it so so so good lol

Best action film I have watched in years. Epic.

It was exactly what I expected based on the trailer, which means I was 100% satisfied with what I got. 10/10

Great movie, this is why I watch Statham movies! Hell yeah he makes your it worth watching. One of the few real action heroes left these days.

Absolutely loved it. Statham at his best. OTT, absurd and utterly brilliant!!

This was a surprisingly great movie. I hope to see a sequel to this one, it would make for a great series
