LAW BREAKING CITIZEN - now if you love films like Taken & Law abiding citizen this is a film for you.

The script was written by Kurt Wimmer the pen behind law abiding citizen so you know what you're in for

It's starts off well but starts to move from excellent to just above average in the latter half - but it starts well & therefore if you end up watching this at home on a streaming service you won't give up after ten minutes you'll definitely want to know how this ends

Jason Statham is great at what he does & at his age his stamina & energy levels are amazing there's no one else quite like him but if you like his films you'll love this as it's up with the best

It has all the right ingredients- good v evil - corruption , loss , exploitation- it is quite violent at times but it's more cartoon than Tarantino unwatchable

If you love Leon you'll love this

There were aspects that didn't add up but as long as you suspend your reality you'll get through it , you never know who really are good guys is it the beekeeper or the government colluding with corporate America - the case where ebay had to pay $3m comes to mind or the post office scandal did the victims need an Adam Clay - not the bassist to U2 that's clayton!

Is it worth a watch ? Yes it's an adrenaline ride like most statham films he'd make a great Bond but they'll probably offer him the role of a villain

Great entertainment & will make a great console game

Pad. A 7/10.
