Movie Review - Mutiny

Still from Mutiny: a man in a cap aims a pistol in a ship's engine room

MUTINY is a quick ride, just 95 minutes from the opening to the last credit. It is the kind of film where you know what you’re getting before you buy the ticket. Heck, you know exactly what’s in store the moment you hear the words “Jason Statham.”

Statham’s character—or someone close to him—gets wronged. Somebody needs to pay, and he’s going to spend the rest of the movie settling the score.

He’ll kick everyone’s butt until he reaches the final opponent, who will be the one guy capable of giving him some trouble. There will be a few tense moments, a few more punches, and probably at least one point where you wonder, “How is this guy still standing?”

But he does. He perseveres, the bad guy gets exactly what’s coming to him, and Jason Statham settles the score. The end.

Sure, there are plenty of over-the-top action sequences that no mere mortal could actually survive. But if you’re looking for realism, you probably wouldn’t be watching Jason Statham punch, kick, stab, and shoot his way through half the cast.

But you don’t watch a Jason Statham movie to be surprised. You watch to see Jason Statham be Jason Statham.

And on that front, MUTINY delivers.
