It does not happen to often that I find a movie that I so revile to the degree of John Wick that I want the antagonists to defeat the protagonist. But, it happened today with the arrival of Beekeeper.
Beekeeper stars Jason Statham. Now, I am not a mega Statham fan, but I tend to enjoy his movies. They are a little campy and he tends to be humorous (although I am not sure he is always intending to do that).
However, this one was just, to put it, straight annoying. The premise was that scam artists bilked a woman out of millions of dollars and ended up dead. So, Statham's character begins a ruthless pursuit to get them back.
It turns out to be one of those Statham vs. the world movies that is just plain ludicrous. Innocent people go down all over the place in the movie to the point that I could not wait for it to end.
