    Synopsis:
    Parker is a professional thief who lives by a personal code of ethics: Don't steal from people who can't afford it and don't hurt people who don't deserve it. But on his latest heist, his crew double crosses him, steals his stash, and leaves him for dead. Determined to make sure they regret it, Parker tracks them to Palm Beach, playground of the rich and famous, where the crew is planning their biggest heist ever. Donning the disguise of a rich Texan, Parker takes on an unlikely partner, Leslie, a savvy insider, who's short on cash, but big on looks, smarts and ambition. Together, they devise a plan to hijack the score, take everyone down and get away clean.

    This plot reminds me of Transporter. He had a set of rules that he followed, and his last job tried to have him killed.

    Jason Statham plays the same guy in every movie so that's no surprise.

    Thought this might be a pretender TV show spinoff, not another forgettable EU Statham flick...

    Why does he play the same role in every movie, you would think he would try something different.

    To be fair, he's a middle-aged balding fellow given the opportunity to be a bad-ass in action flicks. The only other roles he could take are stanley tucci's...

    He's not bad in some, but he does these slow EU flicks where just having a gun means that you are a commando.
