Havoc Ratings & Reviews
- BizimkiApril 25, 2025Oh so much blood and killing! Seems like nonstop. Like in a video game. Unreal shooting. Never run out of bullets. Takes forever to kill a man. Waste of time and good actors.
- Kevin WardJuly 25, 2025Solid action and some pretty cool camera work elevated what was just kind of a blah/forgettable story. Takes a while to get going too. The brutal action in the last act make up for the sluggish first half.
- thomasrogers753July 21, 2025I mean this is literally all action no story in the worst way possible I still love you Tom Hardy
- sixxxshooterJuly 14, 2025Horrible over-the-top movie. The only redeeming quality about it is that somehow they tricked Tom Hardy, who is a good actor, into being in it.
- RipLinesManApril 24, 2025Event Horizon (1997) tore open the fabric of space and sanity to show us the abyss, but Havoc slashes into the heart of urban decay with just as much ferocity—only this time, the hellscape is manmade, and it breathes corruption. Directed with surgical precision by Gareth Evans, Havoc feels like a spiritual cousin to Paul W.S. Anderson’s sci-fi horror, trading haunted starships for crime-ridden cityscapes, and replacing the supernatural with the chillingly systemic. Tom Hardy delivers a volcanic performance as the war-torn detective—a man whose moral compass spins violently as he wades deeper into a mire of violence and political rot. His descent mirrors that of Sam Neill’s Dr. Weir, who, in Event Horizon, becomes both architect and victim of his own damnation. The characters in both films act as lightning rods for their environments. Just as Laurence Fishburne’s Captain Miller anchors Event Horizon with a righteous fury and reluctant empathy, Forest Whitaker in Havoc brings a quiet gravity that keeps Hardy’s chaos tethered, however tenuously, to something resembling hope. These are not heroes in the traditional sense—they are men clawing against inevitability, screaming into the void, and daring it to scream back. Cinematographically, Havoc trades the baroque, cathedral-like horror of a doomed spaceship for noir-soaked alleyways and crumbling institutions. But the sense of claustrophobia, of walls closing in both physically and psychologically, is shared. Evans channels dread like Anderson did—slow, deliberate, with moments of operatic violence punctuating long silences filled with tension. Havoc may lack the literal portal to hell that made Event Horizon iconic, but it conjures its own inferno from human nature, corruption, and guilt. It is a meditation on entropy, not of stars, but of souls. And much like Event Horizon, it leaves you unnerved, unsettled, and deeply, darkly moved.
- SpoonsApril 25, 2025Tom Hardy gets smashed to bits in Gareth Evans’ Havoc, a hyper-violent, cyberpunk riot where the story barely matters and the camera never f***ing stops. Like RoboCop on a cocaine bender. Absolutely wild.
- Doug SimmonsenJuly 12, 2025Love this movie all the way through. It grabs your attention and never let's it go from the start to the finish.
- Andrew CloutJuly 4, 2025Pretty OK movie. Nothing really happens. Had to read the movie description to remind myself what happened.
- chris.ba93June 28, 2025Childlike plot. Boring, even the action scenes. A waste of your life
- rampage98June 18, 2025Cast with good collection of actors that pulled more from the story than it should have. Classic corruption vs good cop vs bad cop movie. Action + good acting kept it going.
- hayde56June 16, 2025Only saving grace was the cast and there acting ability. Fight scenes were good although unrealistic but the CGI car chase was terrible.
- deltaforcereservistJune 8, 2025A really enjoyable popcorn flick for a weekend. Just awesome action and violence. Ending was a little meh if you ask me, but still rec to all
- Kit LazerApril 26, 2025I may never recover from this disappointment (this is a weighted three stars, I love you Tom Hardy/Gareth Evans)
- m.clinApril 30, 2025Good movie, mostly overdone car scenes and cgi effects. Story was alright. Watch once and put on the shelf.
- Alex | Pop Culture BrainApril 25, 2025Aggressive, gnarly, straightforward actioner that let Tom Hardy loose
