Critics Consensus

A middling crime thriller largely assembled from wearyingly familiar parts, Blitz sacks a game Jason Statham's performance behind the line of genre scrimmage.

It is an unedifying film, slickly directed and photographed, but lacking conviction and much inferior to the police procedurals you can see any night on television.

3/5

All three men give searing performances and young cinematographer Robert Hardy dwells with palpable relief on their expressive features.

Who knows, we might be looking at the evolution of the guilty-pleasure movie - padded out with top-drawer talent to spare audience blushes.

4/5

Smart, sharp, shocking, and at times bloody (and bloodily) hilarious, Blitz's witty script and pacy action elevates its simple premise into a brilliantly gritty tale of moral ambiguity.

As conventional as you can get without needing an epilogue that says "...next week on Blitz."

Not sure why this has such a bad rating, it can be a little silly and I’ve the top in places. But over all it’s interesting and worth a watch

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom

This movie was lame. Just one ridiculous scene after another. I had to turn it off.

This is a truly awful film. In my view it is an idiotic and embarrassing celebration of toxic masculinity and angry losers taking place in the bleakest and low-rent of settings. It lacks any vestige of wit, good taste, beauty, kindness, style or humanity. Predictable, basic plot, acting as wooden as the bar-top in an east end boozer.

I enjoy the Jason Statham movies. This one is a little more of a Clint Eastwood knock-off.. Not the best since there is not as much action.
