Havoc review – Tom Hardy’s gonzo gun mayhem misses the point

The film captures a chaotic, high-octane action thriller with stylish gunplay and nonlinear storytelling. While the violence feels unmoored from meaningful stakes, Tom Hardy’s performance as a morally compromised cop resonates deeply alongside an ensemble cast including Jessie Mei Li. Directed by Gareth Evans, the film balances thrilling moments with disquieting undertones, though its execution occasionally falters without clear narrative drive or character depth.
