I wasn’t very impressed with the rest of the movie either. It was too Baba Yaga and unbelievable to me. What did you think?
I have not seen Terminal List but Beekeeper was a standard Jason Statham movie quality. Dumb but entertaining.
Terminal List is basically Chris Pratt hunting down the big shots who caused the death his army battalion and covered it up. He finally tracks down all the way to the top, and she is hiding in her big mansion, and the fbi and a private army is securing the whole island trying to keep her safe from Chris Pratt. He defeats everyone, kills the big baddie, and tries to escape the island with a hidden scuba gear. The main fbi person spots him in a vulnerable state, but feels Chris was justified and let’s him escape. Pretty much literally what happens in Beekeeper.
Hahaha
I get this with a lot of “no brain action films” these days. It kind of feels like everyone is trying to copy John wick and unbelievable things. Really turns me off at this point. Have not seen beekeeper but have seen terminal list.
Indian movies have been doing this for 30 years now, so even John Wick wasn’t novel to me, but at least it had a whole fictional world to go with it, and the stunts were great and he took a lot of beatings making it believable.
Agree. I watched it last week because I was in a Jason Statham movie kind of mood and was really disappointed.
I usually like Gerard Butler movies when I’m in that mood. A bit more normal man prevailing against the odds. I don’t like unstoppable forces of nature where everyone bends for them without enough convincing.
John Wick was the Satire. The imitations all come off as fake due to this. The Nobody movie with Odenkirk was the blood in the water.
They’re fun but pointless. It’s jumping the shark after the end of Happy Days.
