In hindsight, this could have been a great first leading role for Statham.
Williams also gets plenty of action sequences and a couple of zingers to deliver.
Outside of leads Cube and Natasha Henstridge, Jericho is easily the film’s most prominent supporting player.
Not only was he a hugely successful musician, he was also coming off of hits likeNext FridayandThree Kings.
I don’t like that movie.
But they really didn’t have the money to pull the special effects off.
It sinks many of his scenes and makes it nearly impossible to engage with his character.
This includes his fighting style, which is somewhat graceless as presented inGhosts of Mars.
However,20 years on, Statham would be perfect for a modern remake ofGhosts of Mars.
