I have to be honest and say that, if far left Hollywood had not turned out one woke turd after another but actually good movies as they used to a long time ago, this one might not have earned five out of five stars from me.

But since the Hollywood pedophiles have more or less ruined everything they touch the competition for good movies is more or less non-existent so here we go.

The movie is pretty much free of woke bullshit and far left preaching so that alone earns it at least two stars.

This movie is very much a John Wick style movie. Some dumbass criminals piss off the wrong guy and a fireworks display of martial arts and dead criminals follows.

Jason Statham, as Adam Clay aka The Beekeeper, is really at his best in this movie. He is a kick-ass, relentless, stone hard, killer focused on both revenge and the eradication of the human scum that preys on the weak and, in this case, stupid.

The bad guys, at least at the start, is an organization that runs on-line scams. When scamming the person that has taken Adam under her wings after his retirement it has unforeseen and tragic consequences.

Later in the movie this simple plot evolves, as the blurb states, to a national emergency due to the corrupt and criminal actors involved at high levels.

When I watched the movie I really thought that this entire scamming things was a bit unrealistic. I mean come on, people cannot be that stupid! But then I reminded myself that people also, allegedly, voted for a senile turnip brain with a kackling moron as vice president so I guess they can be.

As I wrote, Statham is really at his best. If we should compare with John Wick again, Statham is much more menacing and vengeful than Keanu Reeves ever was in John Wick.

I really like how the criminal asshats at all levels gradually gets their rightful, and usually terminal, punishment and that they most of the time gets to see and sweat as their doom approaches.

Also, the stunts are not at all as exaggerated and ludicrous as in the fourth John Wick installment. That does not mean that they are very realistic but then that is not really to be expected in this kind of action movie.

The story overall is not bad. It is an action movie type of story which means it is fairly simplistic, it has plot holes and it is not overly realistic but that is fine. It is good enough and it is Statham that carries the movie anyway.

This was indeed one of the best movies in a long time as far as I am concerned. Pure entertainment.

This was actually a fairly decent action flick.

The story and script is nothing to write home about. It is the kind of nonsense that makes you think it came from some low-IQ woke Hollywood script writer. It is not though. This is a Hong Kong movie.

Me and the boys sat down yesterday evening and looked for a movie to watch and my second son suggested this. I was a bit hesitant since at first I thought it was a Chinese movie. China of course wants to pretend it is but Hong Kong has not (yet?) been fully assimilated by the Collective of the Chinese Communist Dictatorship so…

The story starts of with Earth being a dystopian world where we made wars, destroyed the ecology and poisoned the atmosphere bla bla bla. Hence my reference to woke Hollywood.

To add to humanities woes a meteorite crashed into Earth delivering a “plant” that grows at a rate that defines all physics when exposed to water. As I said, the script is nothing to write home about.

However, it is good enough to string together the action and the special effects and this is where this movie delivers. Also, after the initial rubbish preaching the movie is luckily pretty free from that crap.

It is fairly gung ho rollercoaster of action, killer robots and alien monsters. The movie feels a bit like a walkthrough of a computer game turned into an action movie.

That sounds a bit bad but we actually enjoyed it. Provided you park your brain somewhere else it is a fun movie to watch.

The bad guy is a bit anemic and them letting him to continue his shenanigans all the way to end, even though he had been exposed, just to let our heroes fight through the last of his robot minions, was just nonsensical script writing.

Still, it was a fun one hour and forty minutes. I’m just surprised that the “critics” of Woke Tomatoes has given it a 88% rating. Probably due to the first 10 minutes of woke rubbish. After that the rest didn’t matter to them.

There was a mid credit scene as well but it really didn’t say anything except to give the notion that the producers wanted to leave the door open to some kind of sequel.

This is a quite good huge monster bash feast. The fact that the well known, utterly useless, far-left rotten site gave it a rotten rating, with a audience score of 91(!) percent, was of course a indication that it was going to be a entertaining movie.

It is a simple huge monster bash feast plain and simple. It is a movie ment to entertain and nothing else. There was next to none woke. far-left preaching and the little messaging there was was more of the governments are really stupid kind.

There is actually a story in this movie and it is not bad. Sure, it is on the low IQ part of the spectrum but it is on the mid to higher end of what you would expect from this kind of movie.

Of course this is a movie driven by its special effects and I cannot say that I was disappointed. The scenery is oftentimes quite beautiful and the action whether it takes place on the surface, with the property destruction one would expect from a Godzilla & Kong movie, or down in hollow earth is very good.

I saw some people complaining that the CGI was poor. I don’t know which movie they watched but it was not this one.

Actually this movie is exactly what you would expect, or at least hope, from a Godzilla & Kong movie and those one and two star ratings are just ridiculous. If you don’t like huge monsters and a lot of destruction, do not watch a movie where that is the main theme.

I read that it was the highest grossing Godzilla movie of all times so one can hope there will be more of these.
