Current Events > I saw the Beekeeper last night

(+) Yeah! (+)

Great movie. I absolutely loved the antagonists and targets of his ire, as well as the movie showing the harm their industry causes regular people. Josh Hutcherson played a pretty good villain and there was a twist that was pretty sweet.

So it's actually a good movie? We have these electronic billboards out here that show small 3-5 second clips as movie trailers. So I just see Jason Statham murdering a bunch of dudes for a few seconds followed by a "The Beekeeper" title and it just looked dumb lol.

Yeah, it's a case of the trailer doing a great disservice to the actual movie. Night Swim was similar.

I don't wanna give too many spoilers, however the people he's beating up/killing and the reason he goes on that mission are early into the story but also I feel like are better revealed without a spoiler. It puts a very disgusting industry on blast for their practices and I feel like the ass whooping would be cathartic for those privy to that seedy industry.

It's basically like John Wick x "special operative trained in secret program nobody's ever heard of"

The one spoiler I'll give is that no, he does no go on the spree over bees as Wick did over his dog & car.

Alright, I'll have to give it a watch then. I actually did think it was him doing that to protect bees lol.

Lol understandable, the bee thing works in a deeper level and they actually introduce some pretty cool bee-related lore/info.
