In January 2023, “Magazine Dreams” had an exciting future with Oscar hopes for Majors. Searchlight Pictures won the distribution rights, reportedly over the likes of Neon and Sony Pictures Classics. And Majors wasand as Marvel’s new main villain, Kang. But two months later, he was arrested. By that December,

of one misdemeanor assault charge and one harassment violation and. A month later, “Magazine Dreams” was without distribution. Majors has, throughout it all, maintained his innocence.The film was eventually picked up by

, the same distributor who jumped in to release the young Donald Trump movie “The Apprentice” after the rest of the entertainment business shied away from it. “The Apprentice” went on to getBut there’s a different kind of stigma around “Magazine Dreams,” which is why this review has also been a bit eclipsed by what’s happened in Majors’ life. It’s a film about a man teetering on the edge of violence, about the relentless pursuit of greatness — and it is deeply uncomfortable watching his descent.

His simplistic devotion to one wild goal may be his undoing in a world that just doesn’t care about him. This is not the movie that any public relations professional would choose as a “comeback role.” Yet it’s impossible to deny the monumental ferocity of Majors’ performance, from his full transformation to his unsettling ability to show the pain behind (most of) the psychotic actions.

Killian’s life is nothing glamorous: He works in a grocery store and at home cares for his aging grandfather. But he has an intense, maniacal need to be seen and to be remembered. And the only way he’s figured out how to achieve that is through physical perfection — or at least his very narrow idea. Success is a magazine cover, which he naively conflates with immortality.Anyway, we’re not here for a lesson, we’re here for some ultra-violence. “A Working Man” does it well, especially a struggle in the confined space of a moving van. The plot gets a little stretched over two hours — including a ludicrous motorcycle chase scene when enough bullets are fired at Statham as were expended in the Battle of Fallujah — but a bright moment is having the snatched teen (a very good Arianna Rivas, someone to watch) step into her own power.

“A Working Man” is exactly what you expect when you unleash Statham on a noble mission. “You killed your way into this,” he’s told by his buddy. “You’re gonna have to kill your way out of it.” In other words, let Statham work, man.“A Working Man,” an Amazon MGM Studios release in theaters this Friday, is rated R for “strong violence, language throughout and drug content.” Running time: 116 minutes. Two and a half stars out of four.

Whatever cruelness you might assign to the month, Dea Kulumbegashvili’s “April” probably has it beat.Kulumbegashvili’s shattering, sensational film is set in a hardscrabble, provincial region of Georgia, the Eastern European country. Nina (Ia Sukhitashvili) is the leading obstetrician at the local hospital and she leads a punishing life.
