The aspect of creating a good Jason Statham film is to almost take the Statham out of the equation. Though Statham has been established as an action genre all his own, he is always at his best when he is playing a character that has an extremity of quirks all his own. With "The Beekeeper" by having David Ayer at the helm and the always dependable Kurt Wimmer writing, it is about the mythology more than the man.

The aspect of "The Meg" is based on the necessity of messing with the modern world through creatures from before humanity. While "Meg 2: The Trench" panders a bit less in its obviousness but also in its financing, the melodrama and by extension, bad writing and relationship structures tend to bog the film down despite an middling interesting mid-tier descent into the trench.

The context of a would be heist/spy thriller all reflects in the tone of a film. Guy Ritchie has always been great at balancing the aspect of bug budget with scrappy independent-feel pieces. With "Operation Fortune - Ruse De Guerre", he finds the best balance so far because the approach is both humorous, dynamic, fun and doesn't take itself too seriously.

"Wrath Of Man" is a tale of revenge, more 70s action than grindhouse but with some interesting additions.
