I try not to prejudge a movie before seeing it for myself. I watch a lot of movies in theaters each year, and do my best to give every new release a fair shake. But I’ll admit before watching “The Beekeeper," I was convinced it was going to be awful.
All the signs were there. It landed in theaters in mid-January — known as a “dump month” in the industry — and it stars British tough man Jason Statham, who (with the greatest respect) has been in an awful lot of stinkers over the years.
