Tom Hardy is currently making waves in the entertainment industry with his intense portrayal in MobLand, a gripping crime thriller series crafted by the talented Guy Ritchie. In addition to this, Hardy has recently starred in a new film that has just launched on Netflix. This film, titled Havoc, features a compelling cast including Jessie Mei Li and Justin Cornwell. The plot revolves around a detective who faces harrowing challenges as he navigates a botched drug deal. Havoc premiered on Netflix last night, and the initial wave of reviews has been tallied, leading to a Rotten Tomatoes score of 67% from critics. While this rating avoids the dreaded “rotten” label, it is still below the threshold to rank among the top 15 films in Hardy’s illustrious career. The audience ratings for the film have yet to be determined.

Havoc is both written and directed by Gareth Evans, who has an impressive career that began nearly two decades ago with his directorial debut in Footsteps, a gripping thriller released in 2006 featuring Jared Morgan. Recently, before embarking on the project for Havoc, Evans directed five thrilling episodes of Gangs of London, a riveting crime drama starring notable actors Michelle Fairley and Sope Dirisu. This project marked a significant milestone as it was his first foray into television. Additionally, Evans collaborated with the renowned star Dan Stevens in the 2018 film Apostle, a chilling fantasy folk horror movie set in 1905, which centers around a lone drifter on a perilous mission to save his kidnapped sister. Some of Evans’ most recognized works date back nearly 15 years to the acclaimed The Raid: Redemption, a martial arts crime thriller featuring Iko Uwais, which is currently available for rent or purchase on Prime Video.
