Havoc - Reviews

Tom Hardy has a blast in this jaw-dropping shoot-em-up.

...brimming with both complex, ultra-violent action sequences and an impressively grimy aesthetic – giving the film a weight and texture that instantly sets it apart from the bulk of made-for-streaming action fare.

The action sequences here bristle and burst with the same frenzied physicality that elevated “The Raid” from an ordinary beat-em-up to an orgiastic carnival of violence.

Tom Hardy is let loose in relentless slaughter saga from The Raid director.

...certainly more worthy than some of the Netflix originals that aren’t delayed and are delivered at your streaming front door immediately.

...is primarily a canvas for Evans to paint in bullet holes and viscera, delivering wave after wave of hilariously over-the-top, comic overkill.

Evans takes a blowtorch to the rulebook, with frenzied, inventive, thrilling choreography that makes it seem as if his cameras are bouncing off walls and bodies.

It’s a thoroughly mediocre experience overall that occasionally morphs without warning into the most exciting and creatively staged movie of the year.

With a video-game aesthetic, the movie pulls you in with its striking cinematography and then repeatedly punches you in the face with its adrenaline-fueled action.
