Reckless (2026) Review

Reckless (2026) stars Scott Adkins as a small-time criminal double-crossed after a heist and forced to fight his way through gangsters, cops, and a ruthless crime boss played by Vinnie Jones. On paper, it sounds like a perfect setup for a high-energy action movie. So what went wrong?

In this short Force Five review, I break down why Reckless feels like a weak imitation of early 2000s British crime films like Snatch and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, with surprisingly underwhelming fight scenes from one of the genre’s most reliable action stars. Have you seen Reckless (2026)?
