Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
SnoopyStyle Detective Sergeant Tom Brant (Jason Statham) is a hard cop in southeast London willing take anything including a hockey stick to the bad guys. Cops are being targeted. Sergeant Porter Nash (Paddy Considine) is brought in to head the manhunt. He's ridiculed for being gay but finds a supporter in Brant. The killer makes reporter Dunlop (David Morrissey) his contact. Brant and Nash zero in on Barry "Blitz" Weiss (Aidan Gillen) as their suspect. Brant remembers a run-in with him a year ago.This is a hard-boiled cop drama. This wants to be a gritty harsh movie. It does come off as another modern grim British TV cop show with bigger actors. Considine fits right in. Statham seems to be itching to be the Transporter. It wouldn't hurt him to play slightly against type especially in a movie which wants to be taken more seriously. I like the grim tone but Statham may be at cross-purposes.
The Couchpotatoes Cop action movie with Jason Statham. Been there, done that. I mean that you know exactly what you are going to get. Statham the super nasty good cop that can't be touched by anything and that acts like a smart ass all the time. If you like that kind of cliché then you won't get disappointed. It's always the same thing with him. The other actors were not that bad, it's just a random movie, good enough to kill time. The story itself isn't that great at all either. It's all been done before and even a lot better then this time. There are a couple of times where you can't help yourself then to say "please" out loud. I saw Blitz once and I won't watch it ever again.
Robert J. Maxwell This may get better as it rolls along and a plot develops. I wouldn't know. I shouldn't really be leaving a comment because I only watched the five-minute opening scene and the credits.But if I can't tell you how it ends, I can give you some idea of how it begins. Jason Statham is a tall, brawny, bald-shaven brute with a mean expression. He's lying on his couch one night, looking bored, rises and glances out his window to see three hoodlums trying to force open the door of his car in the alley.Cut. Statham strides slowly towards the thugs, carrying what he describes to them as a "hurling stick." They begin to spit curses at him and pull box cutters on him. They've never seen a dumb action movie or they'd know this is a big mistake.Statham demolishes them with his stick and when they're on the pavement, groaning in pain, he kicks them and deliberately stabs a hood with his own box cutter. "Next time you pick a fight, choose the right weapon." The credits follow -- white block letters on a black background, spastic, dancing around, jumpy, manically mad.That was enough for me. I'd already gotten the moral message. From now on, action heroes will have to be practically illiterate -- and very bald and sweaty.
Balu Vyamajala This movie released in 2011? really? It seems like 90's one!! A serial killer and cops trying to catch him! come on! how many movies have we seen with same story line! No big deal, watch this too!! thought so and watched it! Only difference you will find in this movie would be, they reveal the Killer in the first scene itself! What? really? Yes, crazy thriller movie with no thrill!! He keeps killing people, everybody including the police knows who is doing it, nobody cares! People will still be investigating! and the kind of investigation they do, I will tell you... its so much better even in Indian serials.. No good action, No good story, No good screenplay. and on top of all boring scenes involving a lady policemen with almost no relation with the actual story! Then what is good? Just that crazy killer! His characterisation is little different with other serials killers! He is fun! that's all!
