If you’re a Jason Statham fan then this weekend you are in for a treat! His latest flick BLITZ is released in the UK & Ireland, in cinemas nationwide. The thriller sees Statham back in his homeland for a British based drama. He plays detective Tom Brant who is in charge of capturing a copkiller with his partner, played by Paddy Considine. From reading the reviews, it does look to be one of the better Jason Statham films that he seems to be making regularly now; probably because it looks like it has a story to it, rather than the usual, go in, kick ass and blow things up! But most likely because the script is by Nathan Parker, who also wrote 
Moon.
Below are 3 new clips that Lionsgate kindly sent us this afternoon, but be warned, they do contain a few nice sweary words. So, probably NSFW, at least with the speakers on..
