Review: Blitz

Anyone waiting for the potential Luther movie might find 2011 effort Blitz has enough things goings for it to tide them over, as it has the same stylish, but ultimately silly sense of fun present in the BBC TV series.

Jason Statham may not have the charisma of the former Stringer Bell in the lead role - he's better doing the talking with his fists and Blitz doesn't quite have enough action to match up to his previous films, but a strong support cast of the likes of Paddy Considine, Aiden Gillen and David Morrissey do most of the actual acting between Statham's one-liners as the by any means necessary detective Brant.

It really should be total rubbish, but somehow it ends up being incredibly entertaining, like most Statham films.
