Like most action heroes, Jason Statham is virtually invincible — especially when it comes to critics.

From The Transporter to The Expendables 2, Statham’s core fan base consistently shows up to support their favorite owner of the best ‘80s cocaine beard ever.

But if reviews for this weekend’s Parker are any indication, Statham fans will find their loyalty fiercely tested.

Parker, directed by Taylor Hackford (Ray), casts Statham as the titular character – a double-crossed thief looking to get even. Jennifer Lopez co-stars as a corrupt real estate agent who becomes Parker’s unlikely ally.

The film is based on a character from a series of popular pulp crime novels by Donald P. Westlake, and judging by the critics, audiences would be better served by picking up the book than heading to the theater.

Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News

“[Parker’s] script, based on Westlake’s “Flashfire,” is pasted together with perfectly timed coincidences and miraculous recoveries. Nearly every choice, from the cheesy score to the jittery camerawork, suggests minimal ambitions. J.Lo’s role… would appear so demeaning even an unknown starlet might pass. (The memory of her fine performance in the infinitely superior Out of Sight hovers over this movie like an angry ghost.)”

Alonso Duralde, The Wrap

“If you’ve ever wanted to see the camel that’s the result of that proverbial horse-building committee, check out Parker. If [the film] just focused on Parker and his bloody mission of vengeance, they might have wound up with an unspectacular but still exciting action movie; Statham, after all, does this sort of thing about as well as anyone on the big screen this decade.”

Christy Lemire, Associated Press

“Statham is stepping into a well-known persona. But he’s not exactly pushing himself outside his comfort zone; he’s on auto-pilot here, despite the obvious physical demands of the part.”

Chris Bumbray, JoBlo.com

“The menacing Statham seems ideal in a role previously played by actors like Lee Marvin and Mel Gibson, with Taylor Hackford, the director of Ray, behind the camera, this should have been a damn solid film. Instead, Parker takes its place as probably the worst Statham vehicle since his Jet Li team-up movie, War.”

Stephen Farber, The Hollywood Reporter

“The picture is far from great, but it’s a serviceable B-movie with some A-list talent on a slumming expedition. Hackford’s direction is uneven… The script by John J. McLaughlin doesn’t have enough invention. There are a few neat plot twists, but more complications and surprises would have helped to sustain this two-hour movie.”

Joe Morgenstern, The Wall Street Journal

“The essence of this grindingly violent movie can be summed up by what Parker says of his handgun to a terrified clerk at a check-cashing service: “It’s small, but it hurts.” Back in 1998, Ms. Lopez spent a lot of screen time… as a U.S. marshal in Out of Sight, which seemed phenomenally smart and funny at the time, and remains the gold standard for modern crime capers. Parker sets a tin standard for crime thrillers.”

Do you plan to see Parker this weekend? Watch Celebuzz‘ interview with J.Lo for Parker, then weigh in below in the comments.

Jason Statham never met a gun he couldn’t strike an iconic pose with, or a vaguely European villain he couldn’t kickpunch.

The owner of the beard equivalent of Zoolander’s Blue Steel – and the best electric razor in the history of shaving – Statham continues to blaze an action hero trail with his new film, Parker.

To celebrate Parker’s release and The Stath’s career, Celebuzz invites you to play “Guess Which Jason Statham Film This Image is From.”

Hollywood’s leading ladies are taking over today’s edition of Celeb Snaps. Whether it’s a televised interview or a casual Tuesday out in sunny Los Angeles, these gals are holding things down.

Sandra Bullock was spotted dropping off her son Louis at his day school in Los Angeles. The doting mother has kept a low profile, but will be in the limelight once again when her film Gravity, co-starring George Clooney, is released later this year.

Meanwhile, Jennifer Lopez stopped by the set of Good Morning America in New York City on Tuesday. The mother-of-two was on hand to promote her latest flick Parker with Jason Statham.

Lopez looked stunning in a slinky eggplant-colored dress that hugged all of her world-famous curves as she talked about her experience on the set.

“He’s up there because he has such a presence and he does the action thing,” she said of Statham. “I think nobody can really mess with him right now.”

Lopez, who just finished her first-ever world tour, was most recently at the Golden Globes where she ran into her ex-fiance Ben Affleck. The “Love Don’t Cost a Thing” singer later told Ellen DeGeneres that she was proud of him for winning Best Director at the award ceremony.

Movie stars may look like giants on the big screen — but not everyone in Hollywood reaches NBA-level proportions.

In fact, some of the biggest stars look quite the opposite in the real world.

Sure, we all know that Tom Cruise stands at your average height of 5’7″. (After her divorce from the Hollywood mega-star, Nicole Kidman famously quipped to David Letterman that she could wear heels now.)

But did you know that action hero Jason Statham, who regularly kicks bad-guy butt like a pro, is only 5’9″? Or that music legend Prince is — wait for it — 5’2′?

Celebuzz has put these and more stars into the ultimate line-up to reveal just how tall — or not — they are.

Check out the infographic, below. (Click to view in its full size.)

If  you thought The Expendables 2 had a lot of stars, wait until you see how many Olympians were on hand for the premiere of the action-packed sequel in Hollywood on Wednesday Night.

In addition to USA athletes, stars of the film including Jason Statham, Terry Crews, Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Charisma Carpenter were at Grauman’s Chinese Theater for the premiere of the intense flick. Both Stallone and Schwarznegger attended with their respective families, while Crews attended with his wife Rebecca King-Crews.

Which Olympians came to the premiere?

On a Hollywood blitz, Ryan Lochte, who often watches action-packed movies with his dog Carter, was just one of the gold medalists on the red carpet. Other American gold medal Olympians in attendance included swimmer Conor Dwyer, water polo player Jessica Steffens and women’s indoor volleyball team member Danielle Scott-Aruba.

The over-the-top action sequel also stars Liam Hemsworth, Bruce Willis, Jean Claude Van Damme, Jet Li, Chuck Norris and Randy Couture. In the flick, the Expendables are reunited when Mr. Church asks them to take on what they think is an easy job. Of course, things don’t go as planned — and the crew has to get their revenge in a place that’s less than friendly. Cue the explosions!

The Expendables 2 opens nationwide on Friday.

Channing Tatum is breaking hearts – and raising temperatures – in the hot new stripper flick Magic Mike, but the actor’s super buff bod isn’t his only asset: he also boasts a winning smile by a chrome dome.

Though the actor is currently in between flaunting a hairier look, 32-year-old Tatum has often grabbed a set of buzzers and sheared away the excess.

However, he isn’t the only celebrity to shave his head and still look sexy. Jake Gyllenhaal, Rihanna, and Vin Diesel have also opted to buzz it all off.

Click through the gallery and see how bald can be beautiful.

The latest celeb to join the chrome dome club? Charlize Theron.

The 36-year-old Snow White and the Huntsman actress recently shaved her head for the role as Furiosa in the film sequel, Mad Max: Fury Road.

Check out photos of her new hairstyle below.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Jason Statham played the role of happy couple as they arrived at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party last night in Hollywood.

Rosie looked especially gorgeous in a red dress by Antonio Berardi, which she paired with jewels by Harry Winston and a Jimmy Choo clutch. It’s no wonder Jason looks so happy!

Are you a fan of Rosie’s dress?

Check it out in our gallery, then sound off in the comments!

Could Rosie Huntingon-Whiteley be engaged to her 44-year-old action star boyfriend Jason Statham? The handsome couple stepped out on in NYC on Thursday causing cameras to start snapping, but our eyes were drawn to the 24-year-old supermodel’s left hand, and the diamond she’s sporting on her wedding ring finger.

Rosie might be flaunting the diamond bling, but her rep told Celebuzz, “She is not engaged and has worn a ring on that finger for years.”

Dressed in a red leather jacket, skin-tight pants fit for a model and a huge tan scarf, Rosie was a vision as she linked arms with her beau. Meanwhile, Jason was also dressed like a star wearing a gray pea-coat, and big sunglasses.

Though the two do not shy away from the paparazzi, the couple rarely talks about their relationship.  Would you like to see these two get engaged? After all, they have been dating for some time.

The highly anticipated Muppets movie hits theaters this Thanksgiving holiday weekend, which puts another hot Jason on the big screen, Jason Segel!

Jason Momoa is the 6’4′ hottie that stole our hearts as Khal Drogo, the barbaric leader of the Dothraki, in HBO’s Game of Thrones. Momoa is also a dad: he and his girlfriend of six years, Lisa Bonet, have two children. Soon this Hawaiian stud will reprise Arnold Schwarzenegger‘s role in Conan the Barbarian.

Bringing up the rear for the Jasons is none other than the studly Jason Statham. This action star won us over with his death defying stunts in Crank, Transporter and most recently in The Mechanic. If only he were up grabs! Statham has been seeing fellow Brit and supermodel Rosie Huntington-Whitely.

Jason Segel flexes his sexiness by working his funny bone. Jason has had us laughing in his hit TV show How I Met Your Mother and 2009′s Forgetting Sarah Marshall (he also wrote it!). The comedian’s love of puppets earns him some more points as he is set to star in and adapt Jim Hensen’s The Muppets out this Thanksgiving!

It looks like action-movie hotties Jason Statham and girlfriend Rosie Huntington-Whiteley would make excellent party guests — the two stoked up on the Fourth of July with bags of groceries, perhaps en route to a holiday barbeque.

The couple stopped by a local grocery market in Malibu, California and left with a cart full of food and beers. Hey, send Celebuzz an invite to the party next time!

The bi-coastal duo has been spotted on the West Coast and in NYC just these past few days, even running into a celeb friend on the streets of New York.

Chances are, if you’ve spent more than 30 minutes on the internet, you know of Charice – the internet singing sensation that turned her passion for music into a full-fledged singing and acting career. After being dubbed by Oprah as the “most talented girl in the world,” 19-year-old Charice landed a guest spot on Glee as the adorable Sunshine and a major role in the upcoming film, Here Comes the Boom.

Celebuzz got a chance to chat with Charice as she prepared for a party with Lifesavers Gummies at Bowlmor Lanes in Times Square on Tuesday, June 14. Charice is currently campaigning for orange to be included as a new flavor in the Lifesavers Gummies pack. 

First off, lets talk about this Lifesavers event you are doing for the Lifesavers Orange flavor at Bowlmor Lanes in Times Square – what motivated you to get involved in this campaign?

I am here to support the orange flavor for the new flavor they will put in the Lifesavers pack. What motivated me to sign on was when I was reading the details about it, each flavor, the orange, blue raspberry and lemonade, each flavor had a background. Orange is smart and everything, and I can relate to him because when they told me about it, he was the underdog of the flavor vote. I can relate to him because before I was always the underdog. It makes me feel great to support – I know it’s not a person – but it makes me feel great to be able to support this flavor and to see all the votes, it’s crazy. Orange went from the underdog to the top baby! It makes me feel happy.

Well you are all dressed in orange, you look great in orange.

Thank you.

You just wrapped your first season on Glee – was it a fun experience filming the show?

It was a great experience. Especially when we did the season finale, because it was my birthday when we shot the finale episode. it was a great experience working with them – all the cast, the crew, everybody. I just miss them because they’re like family now.

Do you think you’ll be joining on for season three?

Actually… [laughs]. It all depends on them. Of course, I would love to come back.  Of course – it’s Glee! Not only because it’s a big TV show, it’s also because of the relationship I had with everyone. I got really close with them, so I would love to be a part of it again.

You also just wrapped Here Comes the Boom with Salma Hayek and Kevin James – was it exciting working on a film with such big stars?

I’m still in shock. When I auditioned for the movie, they gave me the script and gave me a role but I didn’t realize that my role was one of the main characters. So I was like ‘okay,’ and spent almost three months in Boston – back and forth LA to Boston to shoot the movie.

It was a little emotional when I did the last scene with Kevin James, everybody was there, Selma…they took a picture with me and everybody was like ‘Aww, Charice is done with the movie,’ and I was like ‘Really?!’ [Laughs.] The days went by so fast. The great thing is that they gave me my name on one of those director’s chairs, and I love it. It’s a big remembrance for me. It’s been a great experience, and I just want to thank them for trusting me, this whole acting thing is new to me but it’s been a great experience.

Can you tell us a little more about your character in the film?

My character in the movie, her name is Malia De la Cruz, she is Kevin James’ student. She’s a musical genius, she is a brainiac, she is really into school. She really cares about Mr. Voss, Kevin James’ character, he is the biology teacher. She cares about him because his role is more of the lazy teacher, and my character’s dad is a little violent, and he wants to me to go back to the Philippines just to be a waitress and not to go to school and do the music anymore. Which is, in real life, it’s sort of my life as well. It’s a pretty big role, we did a pretty big scene as well between Kevin James and I, it’s a really big scene, I cried and everything. [Sighs and laughs.]

You are a big Twitter user – did you try to get Salma and Kevin to join Twitter?

Well, Henry Winkler has a Twitter, it’s cute. It’s weird that he has a Twitter and Salma doesn’t. It’s funny because every time I go to set everybody talks about Twitter. Henry – he is really cute – is like ‘Oh, Charice’s fan tweeted at me,’ and Salma is like ‘What’s Twitter?’ Twitter is really addicting! Sometimes you think it’s really public, you see of course the negative stuff, but it’s fun to share stuff. [Salma] is just not into it [laughs], it’s just very public. But it’s a great way to promote stuff.

Speaking of negative stuff on Twitter, what kind of message do you have for young girls who might be the victims of cyberbullying through Twitter, etc.?

Oh, I mean, boy, oh my god. I’ve experienced that a lot, especially now. I get a lot of negative messages on Twitter and Facebook, stuff like that. It is just part of [using social media]. Sometimes the worst part is that some people can’t take [the negativity], they are too weak to handle that kind of stuff. You just have to be strong about it. It’s just words coming out of other people, if they say ‘you’re ugly,’ its just a word – it’s never gonna kill you. I just want to tell other girls that if you hear a person telling you negative stuff, just remember that they’re not talking about you, they’re talking about themselves.

Watch Charice’s music video for “Pyramid” below.

Looking towards the future, are there any actors and actresses that you’d like to work with?

Uh, Angelina Jolie [Laughs]. Well, right now, if I were to do a movie again, I’d love to try a horror movie but I don’t want to be the victim, I wanna be the scary one! Like the movie Orphan, sort of like that. I’m really into horror stuff, my dream is to work in a horror film, and if they give me a chance to work with an actress or actor, Natalie Portman or Jason Statham. They are really cool.

That’s interesting that you are into horror movies, what are some of your favorite horror films?

Oh boy, I don’t know if you want to hear this…[laughs]. I’m more into gory stuff, you know like the Saw movies, Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I think it’s pretty cool, because everybody knows that, all the roles they gave me are like student-genius and everything. I want an experience that everybody would be like, ‘Wow, this is the other side of Charice.’

Are there any artists that you’d like to work with?

Oh definitely, I’d love to work with either Ne-Yo or Chris Brown. The songs that I really love are more like their songs, R&B and stuff. Right now we don’t have a female doing that kind of stuff, more like hip-hop and everything like that, so I would love to work with them. And Eminem, oh my god, and Dr. Dre.

You also just released a new song, “Louder.”

Oh yes! Jeez, my song. [Laughs.] Yeah, I just released my single “Louder,” it came out last week. I actually just released two songs, “Louder” and “Lost the Best Thing”, but the single is “Louder.” It’s on iTunes right now, and actually a couple a weeks ago I released it “Before it Explodes,” Bruno Mars actually wrote the song, it’s a very great song, it’s my favorite actually. So just, download it! [Laughs.]

Victoria’s Secret model and Transformers star Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and boyfriend Jason Statham were spotted departing LAX Thursday. Rosie, in a fedora hat and leather pants, looks airport chic as she makes her way through security with her action star BF.

The new Transformers: Dark Side of the Moon trailer premieres today and Celebuzz will have it right here.

Be sure to check back at 4:30 PST to see Shia Labeouf and the new Megan Fox in all their robot glory.

Hopefully Rosie and Jason are getting in a break before she gears up for a busy summer! Judging by her head gear, dare we say they are going somewhere warm? 

Action star couple Jason Statham and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley are ringing in 2011 with a romantic romp to the island of St. Barts.

Jason and Rosie locked lips, walked hand in hand and enjoyed a little boat ride on the posh Caribbean island. 2011 will see Rosie starring in Transformers: Dark of the Moon.

Click through to check out Jason and Rosie’s romantic trip and tell us in the comments – do they make a good couple?

Do clothes make the woman? Rosie Huntington-Whiteley‘s wardrobe certainly seems to be doing its best to make it so.

The Victoria’s Secret model turned Transformers babe was out on a lunch date with her beau, Jason Statham, in Los Angeles on Tuesday, wearing a dress with a seemingly magical hemline. One moment it was ankle-length, the next it crawled all the way up above her knees.

Clearly, there’s only one explanation: Rosie’s clothes have become self-aware, and are trying to undress her. Good clothes!

When Kristin Cavallari is on the sorta-reality show The Hills she denies using drugs, but the always reliable anonymous sources out there in the gossip world say that Kristin is a hard-partying girl who snorts cocaine.

An insider tells Us Weekly that they spotted the Hills star drinking, partying and snorting cocaine during Coachella.

There were also reports that Kristin wanted to go on a golf cart joyride with Jason Statham one night during the festival but they were stopped by the cops and told to go home.

Kristin’s lawyer denies that she is using drugs, but sources say that Kristin has fallen into the Hollywood sleeze-set and hangs out mostly with “party promoters” which is pretty much a Hollywood term for drug dealer.

People close to Kristin lament the fact that she has fallen in with a bad crowd now that she is enjoying moderate success as the LC replacement on the soon-to-go-off-the-air show, The Hills.

If Kristen is doing cocaine and partying as much as insiders say she is, she better watch out: The Hills is coming to a close very soon and if she doesn’t play her cards right she might see her future career go up her nose.
