Mark Kermode Observer (UK) Heaven knows what Brian De Palma (originally slated to direct) would have made of it, but nuts-and-bolts man Simon West, with whom Statham remade The Mechanic, keeps things simple. Rated: 3/5 Mar 22, 2015 Full Review Geoffrey Macnab Independent (UK) [It's] offbeat and entertaining enough to stand a fair chance of achieving cult status in future years. Rated: 3/5 Mar 19, 2015 Full Review Kate Muir Times (UK) Bar. Big breasts. Bodyguard. Jason Statham! Cockney, mate. Vegas, innit? Rated: 2/5 Mar 19, 2015 Full Review Richard Crouse Richard Crouse Could have been an interesting look at the downside of Las Vegas life. Or it could have been a kick-butt action movie. As it is, it is neither. Rated: 2/5 Feb 2, 2021 Full Review Debbie Lynn Elias Behind The Lens As Nick Wild, Jason Statham is perfection. Quiet, brooding, introspective but with a wild streak, no one can build tension with silence, stillness and just a stare like Statham. Dec 8, 2019 Full Review Stephen O'Nion One Room With A View It all feels like a semi-engaging flashback episode of a show about a Las Vegas "bodyguard" ...

Ken H If Wildcard audience ratings are so low then WHY would OVER 9+ sights have it on their schedule? Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/09/24 Full Review Daisy In a world brimming with enticing investment opportunities, it is crucial to tread carefully. The rise of digital currencies has attracted many eager investors, but along with this excitement lurk deceitful characters ready to exploit the unsuspecting. I learned this lesson the hard way, and I want to share my story in the hopes that it can save someone from making the same mistakes I did. It all began innocently enough when I came across an engaging individual on Facebook. Lured in by promises of high returns in the cryptocurrency market, I felt the electric thrill of potential wealth coursing through me. Initial investments returned some profits, and that exhilarating taste of success fueled my ambition. Encouraged by a meager withdrawal, I decided to commit even more funds. This was the moment I let my guard down, blinded by greed. As time went on, the red flags started to multiply. The moment I tried to withdraw my earnings, a cascade of unreasonable fees appeared like a thick mist, obscuring the truth. Just a little more, they said, Just until the next phase. I watched my hard-earned money slip through my fingers as I scraped together every last cent to pay those relentless fees. My trust had become my downfall. In the end, I lost not just a significant amount of cash, but my peace of mind about 1.1 million vanished into the abyss of false promises and hollow guarantees. But despair birthed hope. After a cascade of letdowns, I enlisted the help of KAY-NINE CYBER SERVICES, a team that specializes in reclaiming lost funds from scams. Amazingly, they worked tirelessly to piece together what had been ripped away, providing me with honest guidance when I felt utterly defeated. Their expertise in navigating the treacherous waters of crypto recovery was a lifeline I desperately needed. To anyone reading this, please let my story serve as a warning. High returns often come wrapped in the guise of deception. Protect your investments, scrutinize every opportunity, and trust your instincts. Remember, the allure of quick riches can lead you straight to heartbreak, but with cautious determination and support, it is possible to begin healing from such devastating loss. Stay informed, stay vigilant, and may you choose your investment paths wisely. Email: kaynine @ cyberservices . com Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/05/24 Full Review Korra N One of the very few Jason Statham films that's not very entertaining, Wild Card is a fairly bland and by-the-numbers crime thriller that's only worth a watch due to some decent acting. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/03/24 Full Review Jerod S It's always fun to watch Statham fight, but the underpinnings of this flick are weak...even with Vegas as the backdrop. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/10/24 Full Review Terry S Stratham comes through again. He never fails to deliver the goods ! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/11/24 Full Review Jelisije J An odd entertaining , but memorable action movie. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/06/24 Full Review Read all reviews
