Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Primarily recognized as an archetypal Hollywood action hero, Jason Statham isn't known for his villain roles – yet over the years, the genre superstar has occasionally turned to the dark side. Many of Statham's most well-known characters toe the line between good and evil, often causing incredible destruction – even if it's ultimately for a good cause.
...while Statham is given plenty of opportunity to threaten people and swear in his usual gruff pseudo-cockney, his character is poorly conceived and seems out of place within the movie's New York setting As Jasper Bagges, Statham is a more peripheral presence in the movie than the likes of Mickey Rourke and Sam Riley. However, his character is unquestionably unsympathetic – first taking his brother out of a mental hospital in order to make him compete in the game, and then trying to steal the winnings at the end after he's lost.
Thanks to the combination of Li and Statham, War certainly delivers some impressive set pieces, while Crawford's callous betrayal of his partner and his family marks him out as a reprehensible figure. However, his status suffers because of War's overall poor quality and borderline ridiculous twist. Just as Crawford is confirmed to be the real villain, it's also revealed that Rogue has surgically altered himself – Face/Off style.
Much like War, Statham's villainy in Chaos is only revealed relatively near the end of the piece. However, while his actions are understandable after the injustice he suffers early in the film, he ranks as a solid Statham villain, if for no other reason than he seems to get away with his criminality. Having been falsely accused in the film's opening, Connors' eventual success is arguably quite a satisfying resolution.
