For a Jason Statham film it was more than action! I'm very impressed by how much I enjoyed this. I was expecting the usual Statham film and this wasn't like that.
This story is dark and very believable. Statham plays Joey Jones a man who is traumatized by his experiences in war in Afganistan. Because of that he became a homeless and an alcoholic and it was very good to see a softer, deeper and emotional side of Statham in a film than the usual badass guy.
I liked the way a dark side London was portrayed, and theres a lot of beautiful shots of the city.
I hope Jason Statham continues to do roles like this, this was different and refreshing.
I don't know why the title was changed from Hummingbird to Redemption in the US, but I definitely prefer the Hummingbird title. There are some hidden messages in this film that suits best in this title. Sometimes we have to make decisions in life and later we'll have to take the consequences and adapt ourselves like the hummingbirds do. Good and evil are in our daily lifes we just have to make the right choices.
