Avengement

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Avengement compensates for a lack of narrative originality with thrilling sequences of violent, bone-crunching action, elevated by Scott Adkins' brutally intense performance.

Noel Murray Los Angeles Times May 24, 2019
"Avengement" is Adkins-Johnson's best film yet: a clever reinvention of their formula, which puts all the usual bone-crunching into a more mythic context. Go to Full Review

If you like watching an endless string of prison brawls and pub fights connected by the thinnest of narrative threads, then you'll be in heaven. Go to Full Review
Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter May 24, 2019
Portraying his most complex character to date, Adkins delivers a ferocious turn that proves visceral in its emotional as well as physical intensity. Go to Full Review

This is a gritty, mean, down and dirty crime story about gritty, mean, down and dirty criminals. It's also Johnson and Adkins' most ambitious film to date, as well as maybe their best. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
As usual, Adkins' fighting is great and his acting is, besides the aforementioned hindrances, above decent. This may not be his best work, but it's good nonetheless. Go to Full Review
Luke Whiston TheShiznit.co.uk Jan 8, 2020
While Avengement isn't exactly a classic in any regard, it's a step in the right direction for a new breed of British thumpfests that - if Adkins can wield his sensibilities correctly - may just begin to rival their Eastern origins. Go to Full Review
