Jason Statham‘s new action movie A Working Man is already available to watch at home in the US, less than a month after its cinema release.

Released in cinemas on 28 March, A Working Man sees Statham reunite with The Beekeeper director David Ayer for another action-packed movie.

Statham stars as Levon Cade, a man who leaves his career in the military black ops behind to lead a simple life while working construction.

After his boss’s daughter is kidnapped by human traffickers though, Cade uncovers a world of corruption during his search for the missing woman.

Fans of Statham and Ayer are in luck, as the action movie is already available to buy or rent in the US via Prime Video.

The action movie is yet to be released digitally in the UK and Warner Bros hasn’t confirmed a digital release date for audiences this side of the pond.

Ahead of its release in cinemas, critics and viewers took to social media to share their thoughts on A Working Man.

Journalist Bill Bria wrote: “If you’re hoping that A Working Man is The Beekeeper, Too, you’d better wait for that film’s sequel. But if you want some Reacher-style brawlin’ with a dash of Rambo spice and Hard Target seasoning, Statham & Ayer deliver. This duo’s electric; hope they make something every year!”

Next Best Picture’s Matt Neglia called it his “favourite Jason Statham-led action film in quite some time”, saying it is “leaps and bounds better” than The Beekeeper.

Meanwhile, we here at Digital Spy weren’t quite so convinced. We called it “a waste of Statham’s talents”, but noted: “Ayer does, at least, save the best to last as he lets Statham’s fists (and plenty of bullets) do the talking in an entertaining finale.”

A Working Man is available to buy or rent from Prime Video in the US.
