First 6 minutes & other unrelated random crap


A minor point here, but I ramble on to many tangents. Hopefully it's entertaining & informational & educational & goofy & stupid. Maybe you can some good investments from my advice.

Spoiler Alert, particularly starting at about 5.5 minutes, but still, you probably don't read any farther if you haven't watched to 6 minutes.

Firstly, different role for Jason in the bar, being a jerk. Not yet sure how that role is for the remainder of movie.

The scene played out like I was guessing that it might. He was obviously wasted, so I thought that his fighting skills would probably be pretty low. Yep, that's what happened. Jason got whopped. In reading the synopsis, I see that doesn't continue.

In another movie (spoilers, but recommendation too, but forgot title), his character had a lack of fighting -- for the first ~1/2 hour, as a homeless vet. He later kicked ass.

Cool how he occupied some guy's pad for a month or so, telling neighbors that he was his boyfriend, watching the place while he was on vacation in fairyland (nah, made that last part up). Europe -- same thing -- or some frkin place.

Europeans, don't get upset, I'm kidding. Haha! I'm European-American. My ancestors are from 4 countries there, all having moved to the US during the mid to late 1800s.

Another thing,...blah, blah. To the moon Alice.

Looking forward to watching the rest.

I... Have no idea what you're babbling about.

The opening scene was a setup, jason took that fall on purpose because he was paid to do so.

rndhyd...when you are done trolling the imdb boards...try and really watch the movie and you will notice that he really wasnt drunk or a douche...it was all part of a scam on the girl. So in this movie he could kick ass all along and so he could in the other movie you mentioned, named Redemption, the best movie Statham ever did after the bank job ofc. In Redemption you mentioned and cleary didnt understand cause you seem to have a very narrow and small brain and I cant believe for a second that you decend from Europe with this low intelligence cause Statham was an old bad ass fighter in that movie aswell but he had been a wasted old alcholic living on the streets for so long that he couldnt do *beep* until he got his life around again...please watch movies and follow them and maybe your little brain will understand even the most simple action movie with Statham...

The other film he was talking about is Redemption aka Hummingbird (2013). I agree that's an excellent flick--a must-see for Statham fans.

I liked Wild Card a lot, too.
