    Netflix releases a huge over the top Zack Snyder film in theaters? Yes please!!

    As Snyder’s first jab at something not DC films related, this film is so much fun. Dave Bautista does a great job of shouldering this potential franchise creating project. Overall, the cast was very well put together for their respective rolls.

    Despite the presence of Jason Statham in a Guy Ritchie flick, “Wrath of Man” (3.5 out of 5 stars) is not another “Lock, Stock” or “Snatch”… and in fact, it’s a movie that makes very few attempts at humor. (Save for a couple of jarring, yet welcome bureaucratic appearances by… Rob Delaney?!?) This is apparently a remake of a mid-2000s French movie… and while I haven’t seen it, I get the impression that “Wrath’s” non-linear 4-chapter structure…
