Screenhead

Today we’re talking Chaos, released to Blu-ray thanks to the folks at Lions Gate, and are you ever going to be surprised by this out of nowhere cop thriller.

Chaos brings us a gang leader, played by Wesley Snipes, who takes a whole host of hostages in a bank and is faced with the recently suspended Detective Connors.  Connors is joined by Ryan Phillippe to take down the gang before they can pull off an even bigger heist…but is everyone playing on the same side?  It’s just going to be pure chaos by the end of things.

Chaos is just loads of fun.  Wesley Snipes still makes a terrific villain, and Jason Statham is almost as good a good guy as he is a bad guy.  It’s a little bit confusing in some parts, and will take a lot of concentration in some places to follow completely.  There’s plenty of action and people chasing other people around with guns, and plenty of good old fashioned plotting.  Not to mention a nice little twist ending.

Thus, the Screenhead Ten Scale rewards Chaos by handing out a seven out of ten, a solid score for a solid movie.
