Blitzkrieg Bop. Jason Statham stars as Brant, a rugged copper with anger issues. He likes a drink or twelve, likes to beat down on bad guys and is a constant source of PR hassle for his superior. When a serial killer known as Blitz (Aidan Gillen) starts killing police officers, Brant takes it personal. It is what it is really, just what you would expect from a Statham movie, where the tagline says it all, Cop Killer Vs Killer Cop! There's lots of chases, fighting, quips, brooding menace and with Brant teamed up with Paddy Considine's gay Officer Nash, some room for cheeky devilment. Director Elliott Lester and cinematographer Rob Hardy favour a scuzzy colour palette that befits the London locations, all while Ilan Eshkeri's sound tracking pounds away its feral beats. One sub-plot involving Zawe Ashton's rehab released copper doesn't serve much of a purpose, and you have to take with a pinch of salt how Blitz goes about his business (he leaves finger prints everywhere!) But it's The Stath kicking butt and that is more often than not good enough for a good time, such is the case here. 6.5/10

**Blitz disappoints in almost every way. Dumb movie with a cast much better than it deserved.** Blitz parades its dreadful lack of logic and experience, making its short runtime feel much too long. The writing chases side plots and rabbit trails that lead nowhere despite an effort to tie it all together later in the film. The result is a distracted storyline with awful pacing. The score and soundtrack didn’t help either, as grunge rock music punctuates every action scene. The one part of this movie that shines is the casting with several big actors that have significantly risen since their time in this film, including an Oscar Winner. Unfortunately, the horrible directing overshadowed its cast’s great skill. I am a major Statham fan but not a fan of this movie at all.
