Parker Audience Reviews

More Review
Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
alindsay-al There are so many Jason statham action films out there that it is crazy, this guy will always have a steady paycheck and that is credit to him. I have just watched Parker and this is one of the more forgettable films he has done for sure. The premise of the film sees a thief with a code betrayed and left for dead, do he has to go after the ones who turned on him. Now Jason statham was okay in this movie because he played the same character that he does in everything so it works in this film. But his character has this code and he just ignores it for the majority of the movie and I just don't understand why you're really meant to root for this guy that much as he isn't shown to be a good person. On the positives Michael chiklis is actually quite entertaining in his role and you can tell he is having fun in this role. But everybody else is just so boring, Jennifer Lopez is a one dimensional character that is as cliché as you can get, same could be said for Bobby canavalle's character and I could barely understand nick nolte half the time he was on screen. The story should have been a simple one of a revenge thriller but it tries to be too much and introduce other plot elements that you just don't care about or want to see in this movie. By the time the film focuses up you will have lost interest in what is going on. The script surprisingly had some decent humour in it, and some one liners that actually worked because of what type of film this is. But the dram is awful, I didn't care when I was supposed to and it hurts the film as it leads to you not really rooting for the characters. The style has some pretty brutal action scenes in it and I liked some of the heist elements of the film. Though I noticed that the editing of some of the fights was really jarring and hard to follow as it cuts so many times. Also the pacing of this film is not good, I would have preferred it to have been easily 15/20 minutes shorter then what it was. Overall safe is another statham movie but unless you are a huge fan of his I reckon this is one to ignore.
ToledoTrumpton It is an Action pic, so good action, fun one-liners, and you are pulling for the good bad guys instead of the bad bad guys all the way.I've wasted so many hours watching movies that cost so much more to make and came with gushing reviews and were garbage, so when this one turned out to be unassuming, likable and fun, I was happily surprised.Also, silky and sexy performance from Emma Booth, and Lopez is fantastic in her role too. Statham does his thing, but it is the actors around him that have to give what he does credibility.One of those films that when you think back on it, might not be as shallow as you first thought.
Davis P Parker (2013) did have the potential to be a better film than it turned out to be. I watched this movie because I am a Jennifer Lopez fan and I liked the sound of the plot. The casting was done well, I enjoyed Jennifer Lopez and Jason Statham in the starring roles. Both Statham and Lopez portrayed their roles well, Of course for Statham this kind of role isn't anything out of the ordinary, or something he isn't familiar with. Lopez doesn't normally play these types of roles, but she did well with it none the less. The action sequences are pretty run of the mill and what you would expect, nothing new on that front. The plot is alright, kind of the same thing as the action scenes. Script is good at times and kinda lackluster at other times. The movie also seems sort of disjointed sometimes, moving slowly and losing the audiences attention. That is always very bad, maybe even the worst thing for an action film. It's not like that the entire runtime, but the times when it is that way makes you feel like you want to fast forward. 5/10 for Parker.
Ole Sandbaek Joergensen Something different for Jennifer Lopez, but all-in-all an okay movie with okay acting, lots of fighting just the way it should be in these films, but in the end Jason Statham has a brand, a way were all his movies becomes the same, same acting, same action, same thing.There is nothing special or new about this one either, it is just plain good action and fighting, unfortunately no surprises, it's pretty much straight on payback fighting flick. But sometimes that works out okay, that is what we want, just be on the sofa, soak in mindless action that entertains and passes the time.I would have loved something new from Jason, but maybe it is kind of Jean Claud Van Damme, it becomes the same thing in a bit of different clothing each time.
