Story Line;
Adam Clay is a beekeeper, but someone very important to him is scammed and driven to harm. However, what these power and money hungry scammers don't know, is that Clay is an agent in a classified program called Beekeepers, and they underestimate how much of a threat he is. Adam sets out on a quest of vengeance, where he hunts and kills those responsible for the incident.
Thoughts:
This was very relatable. Mrs. Parker getting the ransomware but not knowing and calling the number hoping they can resolve it. She gets someone on the line who sounds trusting and sounds like they are willing to help. Mrs. Parker does everything they say when suddenly all her accounts are empty.
Normally in these situations there is no help, everyone seems to care yet no one actually helps you get all your money back. Of course, this movie had Jason Statham lol.
This was really good. The storyline was great, the few twists were awesome and even the action was believable.
The movie was the right length, it was just right. It took off, it was easy to follow, and I loved the storyline of this one!
