The movie is neatly directed by Taylor Hackford, who keeps it moving quickly without descending into a blur of cut-cut-cut edits.

This is actually a great film! I went in expecting a disaster but i was pleasantly surprised! Statham was great as usual with a nice twist at his basic action hero character, Lopez was very good and in a role very fresh and different for her (i mean come, JLo sad and desperate getting the cold shoulder by Jason?! LOL) and Hackford is also great! Fun and cool for its genre! :)

He might have lost his edge, but Parker hasn’t mellowed in his old age. A sunny, silly, violent revenger that puts Statham in good company.
Parker the movie, like the man, delivers exactly as promised.
Despite an epic fight or two, Parker robs us of the revenge, the suspense of the hunt, of Parker's methodical way of tracking down those who betrayed him, one by one.
The best we get here are modest action diversions.
The smidgen of dramatic color offered by Jennifer Lopez, as a divorced real-estate broker drawn into Parker's payback scheme, is offset by her character's shocking naïveté, shedding her clothes on command (as if she still couldn't hide a wire somewhere) and falling unconvincingly for Statham's featureless cipher.
The Movie was actually great, The actors seem like they where not trying too hard. Jennifer Lopez Is such a great actress, Jason S. Was also amazing. I would love to see them work again.

Its good, not the best movie I've seen but worth a watch. After a successful heist Parker's gang crosses him and lefts him for dead. After he gets saved he goes on to take revenge. Good acting, decent story.

I like Jason Statham and his acting, however Jennifer Lopez not so much, less and less the more I watch her movies. Nothing against her, but all of her movies are boring and stale, the ole same ole. Her acting is so overdone and phoney. She facially looks so for her kind of looks, incl her age but she is old and has always had this matronly woman who bore kids look. Not everyone thinks that is attractive, she was never all that. Ever. She has a wide load matronly older woman, who bore kids look, and still trying to act/play key roles/parts in movies that don't suit her, her look, and esp her AGE. Is all so phoney and gotten soo old. Same ole same ole, like all guys want that. Pffffssst. Not. Talk about overmilking tht dead cow. Is waste of time and money watching movies with Jennifer Lopez in them. Moo-ve on already.

I like J. Statham: He's really "simpatico" to me but here he's too much "stathamish" ! And JLo has nothing to do with her character Leslie (that is not a "latino" name too). Nolte: Better to retire. The bad guys are ludicrous. A casting disaster and the direction too. Furthermore both plot and its end are more than predictable. But it's D. W.'s fault: I'm sorry about that because I've always loved his novels. It passed my time, anyway.
