Ratings and reviews

This is a fairly decent action movie but nothing original when you think back to Swayze in Road House. Homefront throws in at least one twist to many and most of the action only boils down to the last 30 - 40 minutes. In between you won't care much about Statham's problem with the locals or his unbelievable daughter. It packs a reasonable punch but overall you'll wish for less talking and more fighting. One to rent rather than buy.

A rather typical Statham film, lots of fighting, fast moves, wanting to be left alone to lice a peaceful life... But then that would be boring. This is one of As Stathams better films, great action, even though the plot is similar to others. A fun watch.

Simple plot, good action, typical Stalham hard man movie. Not his best, but worth watching.
