Parker
Movie Review | Ali | 8th March 2013
Halfway through Parker, Jason Statham looks lovingly at a dog. It's quite possibly the best thing he's ever done; not because he then proceeds to engage it in a highly ludicrous fight scene as you might expect, but because it shows he has a sense of humour.

Namely, the idea that you're supposed to at least try to make a good one.
