Jason Statham looking stoic in Wrath of Man
Summary Jason Statham is one of the most popular stars working in Hollywood today, yet his career hasn't always been plain sailing. Between major blockbusters like the Fast and Furious franchise, The Meg series, and standalone hits like The Beekeeper, Statham has built a well-earned reputation on the back of hugely enjoyable, crowd-pleasing action. But Statham's strength is not necessarily consistency.
Everything about the film is unconventional. From characters who turn up and vanish with no introduction, to villains who have no backstory, to lore that falls apart under the slightest scrutiny, In the Name of the King is a textbook example of how not to construct a high-fantasy narrative. Combined with special effects that look cheap and actors sleepwalking through scenes, the whole production is a catalog of errors, making it easy to see why it attracted such critical ire.
4 7 Jason Statham's Worst Movie Has Arguably His Best-Ever Cast In The Name Of The King Has Some Incredible Talent Close Before watching In the Name of the King, I was expecting to spend most of my time in the company of Jason Statham's chiseled action hero. And yet, the truth is that Farmer is just one small cog in the movie's complex machine.
Compared to projects like 13 and Turn It Up, In the Name of the King seems much more entertaining. Although its ludicrous story and high-fantasy narrative make it comparatively easy to mock, there's no doubt that there is more for audiences to enjoy in the 2007 Dungeon Siege adaptation. It even passes higher-rated Statham movies in the entertainment stakes, such as the notoriously plodding Revolver.
4 In The Name Of The King Affected Statham's Career He Has Been Much More Conservative Close Jason Statham has historically, and probably always will, prioritized action movies. Before In the Name of the King, he had established his credentials with starring roles in The Transporter movies, laying the groundwork for future success. However, while action was his bread and butter, Statham also featured in a range of other genres and projects.
