You can't go wrong with a film that stars Jason Statham in it. It is a great storyline which makes you truly realise that there are still honourable people left in the world. The film comprises of fantastic acting from all characters including Jennifer Lopez; who I’m sure will get your hearts beating faster. The story also uses incredible humour which is not over the top and is placed in the most relevant parts of the scenes. Overall this is a decent film to watch at the cinemas.
However, for action and ingenuity, i would suggest Red Dawn unless your specifically into 'the bank job' scenario’s.

I went to see this film with my 2 kids aged 25 and 17. Easy plot to follow, plenty of action and a good story. Enjoyed it all the way through and some good acting. Worth a visit to see.
