Parker (2013)

118 min, action, crime, thriller

Director: Taylor Hackford  
Writers: John J. McLaughlin (screenplay), Donald E. Westlake (novel) 
Stars: Jason Statham, Jennifer Lopez, Michael Chiklis

Storyline:
A thief with a unique code of professional ethics is double-crossed by his crew and left for dead. Assuming a new disguise and forming an unlikely alliance with a woman on the inside, he looks to hijack the score of the crew's latest heist.  

Review:
The last movie I watched with Jason Statham was Killer Elite, and I didn't liked it at all. It wasn't the kind a movie I expected from him. But it's a whole different story with Parker. It's filled with action, which is why we watch his movies. Statham as Parker is as good as expected, J. Lopez is great, as is M. Chiklis. The story is good (nothing spectacular), but it works. So if you are a Jason Statham fan Parker is a must see.

Rating: 6.5/10
