07.04.12 | Netflix | Stallone rounded up all the action stars for one ultimate romp. I think this movie was destined to disappoint but for what it was (an 80s action movie) I think it was ok. Certainly there's a few "random dispatches" - where some of the dudes kill random people in exciting ways - that were creatively brutal and impressively done (like kicking that guy's head down and slicing that other guy's head off) which is really why the movie exists right? It's all just set-up for the random shots of violence going on. Seen in that light I don't think it's bad. Not a classic or anything but not terrible either. It does make you wish the movie was a hell of a lot better, but oh well. maybe the next one. |
