Redemption (2013) (also known as Hummingbird (2013))

Jason Statham has been stuck making a lot of very similar movies lately.  Hummingbird seems slightly out of the norm for him.  The movie looks like it has a little bit more of a story to it and a little bit more heart in it.  Although I could be completely wrong, that is just what I gather from the preview.

A man (Statham) assumes a different man’s identity in order to hide from the law.

The film also stars Vicky McClure, Lee Asquith-Coe, Benedict Wong, Ian Pirie, Agata Buzek, Ger Ryan, and Lee Nicholas Harris.

The movie is written and directed by Steven Knight.

I’m not sure that this movie would be worth seeing in the theatre.  I’m also not sure if it will even get wide release in the U.S. or go straight to DVD.  Either way, it looks like it would be worth seeing when it finally does come out on DVD.

I can’t find a U.S. release date on this one, but it is supposed to be sometime this year.
