‘Carjackers’ Is Beating ‘The Beekeeper’ Despite Poor Reviews
Demonstrating that you don’t have to be a critically well-received, or even well-known, movie to find streaming success,Carjackershas been met with overwhelmingly negative reviews from both critics and audiences alike. The action outing holds a score of just 4.9 on IMDb, with one user callingCarjackersa good movie “overall,” praising the acting, but criticizing “glaringly obvious forced plot-twists.”
Meanwhile, at the bottom of the critical spectrum, another user warns audiences to “Avoid at all costs.” Advice that, based on the Prime Video charts, they clearly aren’t listening to. Leaving that to one side, and leaping back up to the positive, this user awardedCarjackers10/10, saying, “This was probably one of the best action movies that have come out most recently on streaming.”
WhileCarjackersiscurrently beating Jason Statham’sThe Beekeeperinto submission, this is unlikely to be the case for too long, especially considering that a sequel,The Beekeeper 2, has now been confirmed to be in the works. Directed by David Ayer, Statham leads the way as a mysterious man who embarks on a brutal campaign for vengeance that takes on national stakes after he is revealed to be a former operative of a powerful and clandestine organization known as “Beekeepers.”
The Beekeeper 2is now in the works, with Statham all set to return. This time around, The Stath will join forces withThe Night Comes for Us, The Shadow Strays,andNobody 2director Timo Tjahjanto for the follow-up. Details are currently being kept under wraps, but it is likely that the follow-up will further peel back the curtain on the mysterious organization that Statham’s character was once a part of. Which, if nothing else, should allow Statham and Tjahjanto tobring some other major action mastersinto the fold.
