“Shelter” is everything you expect a Jason Statham movie to be, no more and no less. Now we just wait until the next one, when the gruff but amiable dog surfing instructor next door turns out to have a secret past. Go to Full Review

2/5
It’s another spin on the usual Statham actioner, solidly performed but with a ridiculous plot and – even by the standards of the genre – a predictable outcome. Less gimme shelter, more gimme a break. Go to Full Review
Dennis Harvey Variety 19h
Shelter has energy, good pacing, and solid production values…even if neither style or content achieve the distinguishing personality that might make you remember this generically-titled entertainment a week later. Go to Full Review

Jason Statham gets stellar support, but recycled story elements feel far too familiar. Go to Full Review

Most of the things this movie does have been done better in the past, usually by other Jason Statham vehicles also released in January. Go to Full Review

Pennynow 1h Watched Jan 29, 2026 meh SHELTER' the action scenes were fine enough, but there were not enough of them to offset the poorly acted dramatic bits that were excessively punctuated by close ups on jason statham's face looking very much like willem defoe in the lighthouse (2019) no amount of editing could salvage the performance by beathnach. a very forgettable statham film. nothing even close to the beekeeper See more Michael P 5h One one Stathams best acting performances. Excellent fight scenes. See more scott b 8h Statham at his best! He always delivers and Shelter is no different. Highly recommend! See more Laura McAdams 10h Action packed, suspense. Jason never disappoints. Great movie See more Anna D 12h Statham does it again! This movie didnt disappoint. Great fight scenes, super fun car chase. The music gets in your head after you leave the theater. Totally recommend! See more Dax 14h The best Statham in a long time. Delivers what you want but more than the typical action. Deep characters and story. This one is worth leaving the house for. See more Read all reviews
