NEW STATHAM FOR THE WIN (OH, WOW, THAT SPELLS NSFW)

You know who fucking kicks ass? Jason Statham. You know who's a pretty promising young actor who's good at playing psychos? Ben Foster. You know who rules as an evil white guy in a suit? Tony Goldwyn. This release couldn't come at a more perfect time; I'll have spent January catching up with all those deeply felt, keenly observed, exquisitely crafted Oscar pictures, and I'll want to see shit blow the fuck up.

Further evidence that Statham rules: he's remaking a Charles Bronson picture and my reaction was "Yeah, that sounds about right." Charles Bronson's LESS FAMOUS roles are more badass than other people's peaks (not like people forget he was Harmonica in Once Upon A Time In The West or anything, but you thought of Death Wish and The Great Escape first, didn't you?) Statham's up there. It's apples and oranges, or wooden Indians and English guys, but still. No one should be complaining. They should be marking their calendars.
