Alright, action junkies—strap in, because Havoc is a wild ride that does NOT hold back. From the very first scene, this film throws you into the chaos, tipping the first domino with a corrupt business mogul’s son (played by Justin Cornwell) and unraveling a tangled web of crime, deception, and pure adrenaline. And let’s talk about that mogul—Lawrence, played by the legendary Forest Whitaker. When he’s on screen, you know things are about to get serious.
Then there’s Walker (Tom Hardy), a corrupt detective who’s in deep with Lawrence. Hardy delivers a gritty, relentless performance, making you question whether he’s the hero or just another cog in the machine of corruption. But let’s be real—the action is the star of the show. The fight scenes? SWEET!
The house scene toward the end? Absolutely brutal. And if you’ve got surround sound, crank it up, because the sound design makes every punch, gunshot, and explosion hit even harder.
Now, let’s talk about the villains. Some of these people were ridiculously hard to kill. I was yelling at the damn screen, wondering if one of them was a new version of the Terminator or something. Like, seriously—how many times do you have to take someone down before they STAY down? But when it boiled down to it, I was satisfied with how things played out.
That said, the ending? Ehh… not fully thrilled with it. There were moments that felt like an anime or a soap opera—you know, when something huge is happening, and instead of reacting, people are just kind of watching? Like, HELLO?! MOVE! DO SOMETHING! It was frustrating, but honestly, it didn’t ruin the experience. The action more than made up for it.
Final verdict? 5 out of 5. This was a good ass movie, and it’s definitely on the rewatch list! If you love high-octane action, brutal fight sequences, and a story that keeps you hooked, Havoc is a must-watch.
Now, go fire up Netflix, grab some really good snacks, and enjoy the chaos. You won’t regret it, and it's free with your subscription anyway, so... enjoy! 🎬
