Mutiny

Second Jason Statham movie this year... I KNOW! 

This movie is so undermarketed, so the cineplexes are making people pay full price to watch this by not having morning screenings AT ALL. Kinda annoyed that I spent RM20 to watch this. (Sadly, the HSBC Live+ RM10 off promo is already over, *whomp whomp*). Only upside to a midday movie is I would need to have lunch beforehand, or else it would be too late and I'd be hangry AF if I waited until afters. 

So ended up at Gossip Cafe not far from the IOI Damansara GSC and had my fix of Portugese style stingray set (with rice, a soggy papadom, and not warm sunny side up egg) before the movie. Honestly, not the best value for price paid. 

This time he plays a former cop and commando who's now a billionaire's (very the overqualified) head of security, who goes on a vengeance mission to find out who wanted his boss dead. Ends up on a cargo ship, stumbles into a human trafficking ring, kills his way up the chain, chaos ensues. 

  • Dude is his own movie genre at this point lah
  • There's some Die Hard references, especially when he was crawling around in air vents and what not. 
  • OMG he Phineas Gage-d that guy khau khau, but with a knife. Oklah, not exactly like Phineas Gage, but close enough 
  • There's reasons why this movie is rated 18. For real. 
  • I want to know how they are able to find out phone numbers and people's dossiers like that as non law enforcement... 
  • Props to whoever linked Jason Statham's SSM listing for his production company on the Wikipedia article.. 
If you watch Jason Statham movies for the same reason I do, just watch it to check your brain at the door, kill a couple of hours... Ok, it's a 90 minute movie lah. Don't think I can tahan if it ran any longer than that.
