Barney and his gang are back and this time take it up against their biggest challenge yet: arms dealer and former Expendable Conrad Stonebanks. That’s basically it actually… no countries to be freed from a dictator or a mad man with weapons grade plutonium in his possession and still this movie has over a 2…

The Expendables 2
Published on
Two years ago Stallone showed the world how fun it is if you put all of yesterdays action heroes into a movie and have them duke it out together. The movie’s campaign revolved mostly around all the names in the cast but the end product was more than just a parade of names, it was…

For everyone growing up in the 80s and 90s The Expendables is a dream come true. A dream that might be a little too late for it to be completely satisfying but a dream come true nevertheless. In the past some of the famous action names in the cast had some one on ones (Li…

It’s been nine long years since The Expendables 3 received such a lukewarm response the franchise went on a long hiatus. There were plenty of rumors over the years but the franchise seemed very much dead. Sylvester Stallone, the writer/director/star at the center of the first movie, wasn’t getting any younger also. But you just…

F9: The Fast Saga
Published on
This year marks the 20th anniversary of the original The Fast and the Furious. It is a safe bet that nobody involved in that movie ever thought they would be in the same franchise 20 years and 9 movies later. Due to the pandemic the 9th movie, simply titled F9, is released with a delay…

Accident Man
Published on
I’m a fan of old school action movies. I grew up on Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Van Damme and Seagal taking on armies back in the 80s and 90s. I even saw plenty of second-rate action flicks back in the day starring the likes of Michael Dudikof, Dolph Lundgren, Cynthia Rothrock and Rutger Hauer. None of those movies…

The Fate of the Furious is the 8th movie in the long running Fast & The Furious series. A series that started out revolving around illegal street racing with tuned cars but ventured into James Bond territory with a group of people retrieving McGuffins all across the globe, often using a super car in the…

Assassination Games
Published on
Assassins are actually quite a boring subject when you think about it. Sure they kill people, but that also makes it difficult for writers to make them likeable. The only way they can make the audience like them is by having them kill what Donald Trump would call “bad hombres”. Another way to make them…

In Batman Begins Alfred asks a young Bruce Wayne why people fall. “To get up again” is the answer. Young master Bruce learned in that movie what the movie studio Warner Brothers are learning the hard way by now in real life: that you should learn from your mistakes. Sadly, they appear to be somewhat…

Death Wish 3
Published on
These past few years we have been given a bunch of Expendables movies and we were witnesses to Liam Neeson becoming an action star in his late 50s. What most of us don’t realize is that 30 years earlier the same thing happened with Charles Bronson. Bronson was a character actor who appeared in a…

The Mercenary: Absolution
Published on
What would a year be without at least one movie by Keoni Waxman starring Steven Seagal? Since 2012 they have been making one movie per year, and with 2009’s The Keeper and A Dangerous Man this marks their sixth collaboration on a movie. I won’t be too surprised if 2016 would give us another collaboration….

A Good Man
Published on
Ever since Steven Seagal has been putting out DTV-movie after DTV-movie since 2002 I’ve been watching them as soon as they hit the shelves. The output was impressive in terms of quantity as every year at least two to three movies were released, most of them pretty terrible in terms of quality. It was obvious…
