That’s when you know you’ve got a B-Movie on your hands. Or Redemption as it’s known in some territories, including the U.S. Both fine directors in their chosen fields. If you want awards heavy modern masterpieces, P.T.A. Anderson = Mortal Kombat, AVP: Alien vs Predator, Resident Evil: Retribution P.T Anderson = There Will Be Blood, Magnolia, Boogie Nights Not to be confused with Oscar nominated director Paul Thomas Anderson. Whereas it’s nowhere near as seminal as the original in terms of film history, it’s a perfectly enjoyable hour and 45 minutes from director Paul W.S.Anderson. The Italian Job (2003), The Pink Panther (2006) and Mean Machine (2001), a remake of 1974’s The Longest Yard. For me, by far his finest remake is 2008’s Death Race. Based on the original film Death Race 2000 from 1975, the Stath is forced to adopt the role of the mythical driver Frankenstein. The Stath’s appeared in numerous remakes over the years. I’ve taken into account sequels and trilogies and for a bit of variety I’ve lumped all franchises into one place on the list……. However, Stath’s role wasn’t substantial enough for me to class it as a ‘Jason Statham’ movie.

Collateral gets an honorable mention as it’s a fantastic thriller directed by Michael Mann. I’ve been a big fan of his since the early Guy Ritchie pictures, and the Stath top 10 is long overdue. Jason Statham has essentially built his career on these films. With limited release, limited budget and limited appeal, these are the kind of film’s you’d generally see on DVD in a supermarket bargain bin for £3, six months after their release. Former huge stars churn out the “straight to DVD” or “straight to DVDesque” flicks such as: Usually it’s in an actors twilight years that they settle into the B-movie circuit. Quite simply, he is brilliant at being Jason Statham. He knows he’s making B-movies, nuts and bolts action films and nothing that requires him to turn up and be anything other than Jason Statham. He’s completely unapologetic in all of his roles. I studied film for years and have an appreciation for classic cinema, European films, critically acclaimed works, art house pieces, Asian horror, award winning movies and also Jason Statham. I’m a huge Jason Statham fan, and I don’t know why. Just when I thought, I’d grown bored of these films, articles start flying around the Internet about Meg, a forthcoming 2018 release, starring Jason Statham in fisty cuffs with a killer shark. It’s fair to say, this sort of thing has been done, to death.

Since 2006’s Snakes on a Plane, we have had: Dinoshark, the Sharknado series, Piranha 3D, Piranha 3DD, Piranhaconda, Sharktapus, Dinocroc vs Supergator, Megapython vs Gatoroid and so on and so on and so on. There have been a surge of ridiculous man vs.
