(2024) The Beekeeper
ACTION
Co-produced and directed by David Ayer, written and co-produced by Kurt Wimmer that has Adam Clay (Jason Statham also credited as co-producer) who is also "The Beekeeper"- hence the title! At the opening we think of Adam as just as an ordinary beekeeper, but as the movie is progressing down the line, he is nothing but. It has the set up of the landlord inviting Adam for dinner, and while he is attending his bees, his landlord then gets swindled all of her life savings. And it is at supper time, and Adam brings over a jar of honey for her until he discovers her with her daughter FBI agent, Agent Verona Parker (Emmy Raver-Lampman) coincidentally there at the same time discovering at the same time that she has taken her own life. At first Verona thinks he did it but soon realizes he was a long time renter of her moms and as well as a very close friend. And with a little look on her mom's laptop, it was soon concluded that Verona's mom had just been scammed of her entire life savings from a telemarketing firm. Provoking Adam Clay to make amends leading that one facility to a much bigger one. Eventually leading to something bigger, viewers find out he is not just some ordinary beekeeper.
Much of the movie is entertaining with the action picking up after the 40 minute mark with many familiar movie scenarios from such movies as "The Equalizer", the "Jason Bourne" movies, John Wick and Sicario to name a few.
