Jason Statham Action Movie Mutiny Releases on Digital Streaming

Jason Statham’s newest movie is making the jump from cinemas to streaming early due to a disappointing box office run. Action thriller fans looking for something short and fun to watch should set their sights on the film, as it is now available for purchase or rent on digital platforms, such as Amazon Video, YouTube, and Apple TV.

Jason Statham’s character, Cole Reed, is out for vengeance in Mutiny. Reed’s boss and friend is hunted down and murdered, and he is framed for it. His goal is to seek out those responsible for the hit and take matters into his own hands. The best part is that the majority of the movie takes place on a cargo ship, which is apparently the perfect setting for some impressive and gruesome fight scenes.

Mutiny hits streaming before leaving theaters

Jason Statham fans had high hopes for Mutiny, as it had everything it needed to be a good action movie. Unfortunately, it was a box office fiasco. With a $40 million production budget, it only made about $24 million since opening in theaters on Aug. 21.

Mutiny got mixed reviews from critics. On Rotten Tomatoes, it holds a score of 50% based on 115 critic reviews. As for the audience opinion, the PopcornMeter sits at 86%. It is possible that the movie didn’t do as well as expected because Amazon accidentally leaked it a few days before it hit theaters. The extent of the damage is unknown, but it was enough for some viewers to watch it early and allowed internet pirates to begin distributing it.

In an attempt to boost its earnings, Mutiny is now available for purchase and rent at home on various streaming services, like Amazon Video. It costs $19.99 to rent the movie in 4K UHD and $24.99 to buy it.

Overall, audience opinion of the movie remains positive, so its earnings do not reflect its quality as an action-packed thriller. It features the typical Statham formula that fans love and return for, featuring Cole Reed as a quiet and mysterious ex-cop out for revenge. For anyone on the fence about whether Mutiny is worth watching, this release provides the perfect opportunity to finally give it a try.
