Quantum of Solace is a great bond movie. It was not better than Casino Royale but very close. If they just had a better story it would probably be the same as the 1st one. It did have the most action u'll ever see in a bond film for sure. The action scenes were very strong & long. They included gunfights, fighting, car chase, boat chase & plane chase all in one movie. They were all basically put together throughout the movie. Some of the action scenes reminded me from the bourne films. the acting was top notch from Daniel Craig. He played bond well just like he always does. Olga Kurylenko played her role well too. I think she's probably the best bond girl ever. She is so fine to watch in the movie. You just have to love her & her sexy accent. Everyone else i didn't really care for. They still did good for a bond film though. There was just something I didn't like about the movie & that was James Bond never said his line by introducing hisself saying "Bond James Bond." That just really upset me there because he always uses that line. The ending kinda upset me too but still tells ya that there's going to be a sequel which i'm really looking forward to. I defenitly got my price of admisson watching this movie. I didn't really have high expectations about this movie but when it was over I was very satisfied & glad I went to see it. Overall i recommend this for all bond & action fans. It's a fun fasted paced full action-packed bond film that I'm sure everyone will enjoy. 4 1/2 stars.
body of lies was a highly entertaining edge of ur seat thrill ride. i didnt really know how this movie was going to turn out but in the end i thought it was great. leo & crowe were amazing in this movie. they bring their characters to life. i just love the chemistry between the 2 of them. they just made it so enjoyable to watch. i thought everything bout this movie was great except the plot. i got a litt confused through the movie where everything was going but it was still good. the action is nonstop when its shown. there r only like 2 major action scenes that featured shootouts & chases. just dont go expecting a full throttle action movie. its more of a fast paced political drama more than anything. there is kinda of a nasty torture scene in this movie that is sort of difficult to watch when u see it. the film never got boring for one sec. it kept my attention from start to finish. u might feel disappointing with the ending just like i was but it still left me satisfied. overall i say this movie is one of leo & crowes best. best thriller & performances that i've seen in a long time. its just an amazing picture, 4 stars.
Max Payne is a very cool revenge action flick based on video game about a cop (Mark Wahlberg) who is working on a cold case bout his families murder. Out for revenge, Max must search through the streets of New York City looking for clues that revolves around the murder of his family. During Max's investigation, he runs into a russian gangster named Mona Sax (Mila Kunis) who is also out for vengence for the death of her sister, Natasha (Olga Kurylenko). Now Max & Mona are on a quest to find & hunt down the ones who connect with the loss of their loved ones in a battle to the death.
I didnt really know how this movie was going to turn out but when i was finished watching it, I came out satified. I was so amazed how everything turned out in this movie. As i was watching the first half of the movie, I thought it started off a little slow but then began to pick up towards the 2nd half which made the movie good all together. The story thats in this movie is so much different than the one that is in the game but I still liked it anyway. I liked the way the director (John Moore) of this movie changed the script & made it his own. John made this addaptation interesting & one to follow well. The movie did stay true to the game by having very dark atmospheric scenery in the background which I was very impressed with. It had alot of nonstop action including gun battles & slow motion sequences when they were shown. I just wish this one had more shooting slo-mo sequences like the game did which was very disppointing. The visual effects during the action scenes were so awesome to watch. They were very loud & noisy. It didnt have action throughout but it had enough to keep you on the edge of your seat that were really intense. I guess thats why the director didn't want anymore than what was in this movie because they were so violent for a PG-13 rating. It was a very hard PG-13 with brutal violence, little amount of blood & brief strong language. The acting was fantastic from almost everyone. Mark Wahlberg did an oustanding job as max payne busting peoples heads & taking them out with heavy automatic weapons. Mila Kunis delieverd good as Mona Sax with a big machine gun by her side. Even though she had a small part, I thought she was one of the strongest actors in this movie who I was very suprised with. I was very impressed with Ludacris's acting as Jim Bravara. I thought he jumped Max's butt pretty good as the Internal Affairs Detective. He is probably one of the few rappers who has transferred into a good actor. Everyone else was decent but not as good as those three were. By the way, if you watch this movie, be sure to stay after the credits. Their is an alternate ending. I'm not going to spoil it for ya. Your just going to have to see it for yourself. Overall this movie is the best video game movie to date I think. Hoping the second one they make is even better. Not bad for the first Max Payne. I just hope the second one provides more action than story so it will be more true to the game & fans can enjoy it even more. I recommend this movie for hardcore Max Payne & action fans. You will definitely get your money's worth watching it if thats what you are. Max Payne is a very hardcore action/mystery with plenty of surprises & entertainment.
"There's an army of bodies under this river, people who ran out of time, out of friends. I could feel the dead down there, reaching up to welcome me as one of their own. It was an easy mistake to make."
i just got back from seeing bangkok dangerous & i have to tell ya, that i had heck of a time watching it. bangkok dangerous is a kick *** movie. it was an extremely entertaining fast-paced action-packed movie. from the very begining u get hooked watching it till the very end. the action never lets up for a sec. it has lots & lots of gunfights & explosions. it also had some pretty violent parts in some scenes. the action & story was just terrific for the movie. i wasnt really expecting the ending to turn out like it did but i was still satisfied with it. its just one of those endings u dont expect. overall this is one of nicolas cage's best movies. i really enjoyed watching it & i'm sure everyone else will feel the same. the movie is worth watching again & again, its straight forward action flick 4/5 stars.
i just came back from seeing eagle eye & i thought it was a great movie experience. it is a movie bout a guy named jerry shaw (shia labeouf) & a woman named rachel holloman (Michelle Monaghan) who one day gets a call from a mysterious stranger telling them that they need to complete tasks to stay alive. now on the run, jerry & rachel must figure out the mystery behind the stranger before its too late. i thought this movie was action-packed with adrenaline rush throughout. it keeps u on the edge & never lets up till the very end. their r great twists & turns that u dont see coming. i thought this movie had the best acting out of any movie that i've ever seen. they all seemed oscar-worthy to me. overall this movie is worth every penny. its a great movie that u want to experience again & again. one of the best movies of the year. two very big thumbs up, 4 1/2 stars.

The top leader of the races is a professional driver named Frankenstien. All that changes when a ruthless madman called Machine Gun Joe (Tyrese Gibson) takes Frankenstien out right before he gets to the finsh line which makes Machine Gun Joe the winner.
In the not too distant future, a retired nascar driver named Jensen Ames (Jason Statham) who is trying to support his family by his job. One day at work, Jensen gets mad over his paycheck because he was supposed to get more pay than what they gave him. Jensen then gets out of control & fights to prove a point. Jensen then, heads home where his wife & baby are. Jensen leaves his wife for second & heads upstairs. Suddenly, a stranger enters the door & shuts it tight. Jensen races downstairs getting ready to eat dinner with his wife. When Jensen gets to the kitchen, he sees his wife's body on the ground covered in blood. Jensen then turns around & gets knocked out. A few hours later, Jensen wakes up & is surrounded by the police. Jensen figures he got set up when he's holding a knife right next to wife's dead corpse.
Years later, Jensen is a death row inmate who gets transferred to a minimal secure wing prison where a woman warden named Hennessey (Joan Allen) has him over custody.

Later on, Jensen gets a feeling that his wives killer may be on death row with him. Jensen must figure out the conspiracy of why he's in the prison & have his vengence along with winning his freedom.
I really enjoyed the heck out of Death race. It opens up with a action-packed scene that never lets up till the very end. It was full with lot & lots of car chases, explosions, & gunfights. I very much like the story as well. I thought it had a good plot for the movie. It was better than I was expecting it to be. When I bought the Unrated DVD, I was even more saisfied with the movie having more action in it.
So who ever hasnt seen this movie yet, go & get yourself a copy of it on DVD or Bluray. Its defenitly worth buying & seeing over & over again. It's one movie that i'll always treasure in my DVD collection. yeah, its that great. Death Race still the best action movie of 2008. Two very big thumbs up!!!
Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor is fun sequel to action blockbuster franchise. This time Rick (Brendan Frasier), Eve, (Maria Bello) Jonathan,(John Hannah) & Alex (Luke Ford) are back in danger when Rick son Alex uncovers a new Mummy aka the Dragon Emperor (Jet Li) & brings him to life. From Chinatown to the dessert, the O'Connell's face the Dragon Emperor & his army in a battle to save the world once again. This Mummy I think is the best in the Mummy series because it has more action/adventure in it. There are daring escapes, chases, & gunfights throughout. Everyone did exceptionally well with their performance as always. I was really suprised with Maria Bello's performance as Eve. She sounds just like the other actress, Rachel Wiez. Maria really impressed me on that. Thought she was going to fail but she succeeded. Overall, this is a good entry. If you love the other Mummy movies you will defenitly love this one. Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor is a heart pounding rollercoaster ride. 4 stars
Batman/Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) is back & better than ever in The Dark Knight. This time Batman has to face his true & worst enemy of all time, the Joker (Heath Ledger). Batman doesn't know what he's in for this time around. The Joker causes more chaos for Batman than any villain has before. The only way that the Joker will stop causing destruction for Gotham City is getting his hands on the mayor of Gotham City Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart). Now, Batman has to do what he does best & that is using his high tech skills & gadgets to take down the Joker & sabotage his evil plan.
The Dark Knight is truely an amazing picture. It was enjoyable & entertaining throughtout. It holds your attention till the very end. Everyone lights up on screen. My favorite Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, & Aaron Eckhart who did a super b job with their roles.
Christian Bale was at the top of his game. He is the biggest A-list actor right now & seems to live on as one. Everytime he appears on screen I get so excited to see what he's made of. Christian still proves that he's one of the biggest actors in history that still lives on today.
No words can descibe how amazing Heath Ledger was as the Joker. Heath was just out of this world showing us that he can be another person without showing his real face. I thought it was his best performance ever. He played the Joker full of laughs with powerful acting. I thought he stole the movie. I mean he's basically what everyone wanted to see this movie in the first place. Even though, I was never into watching Heath on screen this movie changed my mind on that. It was so sad of the tragic death about him but he will always be rememberd as one of the well gifted actors ever. Heath Ledger will never be forgotten. This movie just made him the biggest star of our time. Two very big thumbs up for him portraying as the Joker.
Aaron Eckhart was the next best one out of the bunch. When he sets his mind on something, he shows the audience, exactly waht he can do with it. He's probably the few with talented acting skills thats come long way in our lifetime. Aaron was vicious criminal as Two-Face. Man, he looked so dark & played a good villian half of the time. Aaron needs to keep starring in more roles because I would like to see what he takes on next. Aaron's on his way to the top & beyond.
Maggie Gyllenheal is the last that I thought stood out. Maggie has turned into a great actress & gorgeous woman throughout the years. She looks better & better as she's on screen. She sure knows how to turn someone on by her wonderful personality & beauty. Hope to see her take on more roles in the future.
This film had plenty of action, drama, & flat out suspense which makes it worth watching over & over again, its that great yall. So who ever hasn't seen this movie, go & grab you a copy on DVD or Bluray. i'm sure yall all will have a great time watching just as I did. Its defenitly a masterpiece with great acting & writing. So see it & enjoy, you wont regret it. The Dark Knight is the best movie of 2008 & batman yet..
Harvey Dent: You either die a hero or live enough to see youeself become the villian.
Wanted is an nonstop action/scifi/thriller thats about a accountant named Wesley Gibson (James McAvoy) who hasn't always been living an ordinary life. Nothing is very special about him that he's aware of. He goes through stress related breakdowns. One night that all changes when a stranger named Fox (Angelina Jolie) embarks upon Wesley telling him that his father has been murdered. Wesley doesn't understand what Fox is telling him but when an assassin confronts the two of them, Wesley begins to relaize that Fox's isn't putting him on.
Later on, after Fox & Wesley escape from the assassin, Wesley meets a man named Sloan (Morgan Freeman) from a secret organization called the Fraternity. Sloan starts telling Wesley that his father worked for the Fraternity as an assassin. After Sloan tells Wesley that, Sloan wants to test Wesley his ability skills. Wesley passes but still doesn't believe what Sloan & Fox is telling him.
The Next day at work, Wesley snaps & gets sick of everyones crap by taking matters in his own hands that he didn't think would ever be possible. Wesley goes back to the Fraternity & wants to be the man his father was by getting trained through his father's trials. As Wesley is trying tin find out who he is, Sloan wants Wesley to avenge his father by gunning down the assassin who was responsible for his father's death whose name is Cross (Thomas Kretshmann).
After Wesley gets done training, he starts hunting down Cross & by using his father's super killing skills that requires curving & bending bullets in the most visualizing ways by being the best assassin ever.
Wanted is a entertainng ride from begining till end. It has alot good effects during the action scenes. The action in this movie is breathtaking. Theirs alot of gunfights throughout most of the movie that keeps you satisfied. This defenitly deserved the R-rating for sure because of all the bloody violence & language it had in it. The suspense was kind of predictable & then again it wasn't. It still shocks & suprises you though. The acting from the cast dida good job. James McAvoy who was Wesley shows off his english accent thats very impressive & fun to watch. James also makes a good action hero & comedian. Hope to see him in more movies like this one. Morgan Freeman who played Sloan was amazing as he always is. He shines up the movie like a new penny. Morgan is a well gifted actor. Then we have the sexy Angelina Jolie who was Fox. Man, she's so easy on the eyes. I thought this was one of her best performances. She proves that she still has what it takes to be an actress an action star. Common was good for his junior movie even though he didn't have many lines. I think he'll be big in the acting business one day. Everyone did a good job by making this movie succeed as an action movie. Overall, I did enjoy Wanted for what it was & can't wait for the sequel. Wanted is loaded with action that entertains & keeps you guessing. 3 1/2 stars
Will Smith is Hancock, a superhero thats just laid back getting drunk till the public needs him. When the public calls for help, Hancock comes to their rescue but not in way they want him too. Hancock doesn't understand why their not grateful for saving their lives. That same day, Hancock comes to rescue a guy whose in Public Relations named Rafe (Jason Bateman) who is very thankful that Hancock came when he did. From there, Rafe invites Hancock into his life by sharing everything that he has with him including his lovely wife Mary (Charlize Theron) & their son, Aaron (Jae Head). As Hancock is with Rafe & his family, Rafe decides that he wants to help Hancock by putting him back on top. The only way that Hancock can do that, is by going away & see if the people miss him. One day, things go real bad where the public need Hancock's help once again. Hancock comes but not like as he was before but with an actual superhero suit which makes him an icon to the world.
Hancock is a very good action/comedy/drama. Hancock is not an ordinary superhero movie where its just action but with a story that keeps you interested & having fun with. It has its up & downs on things but good nonetheless. It's set on superb class entertainment all the way. From the start your in on the action & as it goes on it keeps you on edge of your seat suspense. There are twists that you don't see coming that were very shocking when witnessing. This film is really hillarious with alot of suggestive crude that may not be suitable for younger viewers. Their is also some foul language that was little too much for a PG-13 like using the F-Word twice. Hancock is one of Will Smith's best & finest performances since I Am Legend. Even though this movie doesn't really relie on acting, I was very surprised how good it was. Charlize Theron was really good with her part playing a sexy stunning wife. Jason Bateman who I'm not really familiar with was good as well who was trying to help Will get make on his feet with things. Whoever hasn't seen this movie. You don't know what your missing. Do yourselves a favor & see this fun enjoyable film. Hancock is an entertaining action-packed piece of cinema that will engage viewers with a good story along with a fun expereince watching Will take on a hero that will inspire..
Doomsday is an action/scifi/horror/thriller about a country that goes into quarantine when a infection spreads arounds that eats away towards every living organism who tampers with it. Meanwhile, an elite team led by a surviving soldier named Eaden (Rhona Mitra) who goes on assignment to recover a cure that will save humanity.

Now, Eaden & her squad must fight against Sole & his gang to stay alive & find the cure before Doomsday comes. I saw Doomsday not knowing what to expect from it. Man was I blown away by how how good this movie turned out. This movie had a whole lot of action, violence & gore in it. It was one the most entertaining movies that I've seen, its that good. Warning, if you cant handle the violence thats in this movie, then you wont enjoy this movie because thats all it really has in it. Also as I was watching it, I noticed it was like Mad Max style which was a cool thing because those movies are awesome and this movie seemed like a remake of it. So that made it even more awesome to watch. Mad Max with a girl as the hero played by Rhona Mitra. She was so fun to watch in this one. Rhona shows what it takes to be a big actress & action star. In the end, this movie was awesome filled with spectacular violent action scenes from the start. For all you that endure action/horror you'll love this flick. Doomsday is a movie to die for thats full of hardcore action thats filled with mindblowing entertainment. 3 1/2 stars
I just saw Street Kings & man I have to tell you that this was the greatest cop movie I have ever seen. I was just so amazed of how the acting turned out from all these actors. I though this was such a great movie with a great supporting cast & plot to go along with it. I wasnt bored one time while watching Street Kings. I was glued to my seat from start to finish. I couldnt take my eyes off the screen once. It hold your attention & keep you entertained throughout till the exciting conclusion. It had so many twists & turns that you dont see coming what makes this movie even greater. The Departed was great but Street Kings was amazing. So if you like movies that have a great story, suspense & action to go along with it. Go and see this you wont regret paying for your ticket. This movie is oscar worthy I think & it should be because of how amazing it is with really great actors. 5 stars
I went to see this movie and i have to say that I was blown away about how much action & suspense was in this movie. It kept me on the edge of my seat through out. It didnt let up or get boring for one second. It was a hugely entertaining movie. So whoever likes action, suspense, violence, and conspiracys, then this is the movie for you. Go see it, you wont regret it. Its a movie to experience again and again. 3 1/2 stars
Rambo rocked all the way through. It was filled with some much action, blood, gore, and violence from start to finish. It was one of the most entertaining movies that I've seen so far this year. This was the best Rambo to date b/c you can experience seeing all the violence what Rambo causes throughout towards the bad soldiers. I loved every waking minute of this movie. I will definitly like to see it again when it comes to DVD. So if your in the mood for boody violent entertainment & action & gore filled excitement, then u should definitly go see it, you wont regret it. 4 1/2 stars
Hitman is based on the best selling action videogame about a hitman assassin known as Agent 47 (Timothy Olyphant) who finds out that he's been betrayed by his own company who wants him dead. Agent 47 is also being hunted by an Interpol agent (Dougray Scott) who wants to bring him in. Now Agent 47 must clear his name by doing whatever it takes to get his revenge. As Agent 47 is being hunted, he hooks up with a russian named Nadia (Olga Kurylenko) who helps him along the way with his mission. The Hitman will make sure that the evil cooperation & whoever else was in on wanting him dead get what they deserve as he uses his highly trained assasination skills against them.
Hitman was a great wall to wall action movie. I loved the gunfights & explosions that were in it. They were nonstop & didn't let up for a second. They picked a good actor to play the part as the Hitman. If they make a sequel, I think they should stick with Timothy Olyphant because he did great as Agent 47. I don't know who else could play the Hitman. I think probably Jason Statham could but he needs to learn english before he does. I still thinks he has the experience because he is all about kicking but i'm still sticking with Timothy Olyphant. Hope he's in the next one. I hate it when they change actors for characters in a movie. I just messes up sequels. Overall Hitman was a great action movie that I would just watch over & over again. It kept me entertained from the begining till the very end. I had a litt probably with the acting from these russians but they wern't too bad I didnt think. I'm sure they could do better but they were still okay for me. So far this is the best video game addaption ever made. When I watched it, I felt like I was playing the game. It was so cool. in the end, I recommend this movie to everyone who loves action-packed movies. Its a must see for all action junkies.
the first time i saw this movie i absolutely loved it. it was a great adventure tale bout this hunter beowulf where he has to slay a monster named grendel & his mother. i was entertained from start to finish. there wasnt any boring spots in the movie. it keeps u interested till the very end. i really enjoyed & thats y i added to my dvd collection. all the supporting cast did excellent job which made it more entertaining to watch. the story, the action, & the suspense was great throughout. i could watch this movie almost everyday. it will always be one of my fav movie's of all-time that i'll will cherish the rest of my life. in the end, i recommend everyone to see this if u already havent. its a must see for all viewers 5/5 stars.

I've seen some good revenge movies in my day but this one just topped them all. Death Sentence was the most entertaining revenge tale I've ever seen. This movie has an engaging story which is so perfect for its genre. It's locked & loaded with spectacular action, suspense, & gruesome violence/gore. Its also a very sad movie. The movie kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish.Kevin Bacon does a great job as portraying the vigilante full of emotion throughtout the film. Kelly Preston is good as the emotional mother who cries out for her family. Garret Hedlund was a psychotic gang leader who showed so much anger towards Nick & his family. All the cast did a good job making this movie belivible enough to entertain. Overall, everyone needs to see this.Iif someone hasn't, i recommend them to go out & pick theirselves up a copy. They wont regret it. It's defenitly one to own. Death Sentence is an all out revenge thriller with nonstop action, exciting thrills & bone-crushing suspense. 4 1/2 stars
this was such an awesome movie to watch. one of my all time favs. clive owen is the ultimate action hero who kills alot of bad dudes with guns who are trying to kill a baby. seriously what more could you ask for. it was filled with alot action gunfights throughout. there was alot of comedy too which made it even more entertaining to watch. it is a fun experience to watch on the big screen & still is on video. i still watch this movie till this day. its the best shooting movie i've ever seen in my life. a real nonstop bloody action packed adrenaline fueled thrill ride from start to finish. its that good. so go out and grab you a copy. u wont reget it, 4 stars.

this is the best bourne yet. i was really entertained throughout. it has alot more action & violence than the other 2 bourne movies. the other ones were kinda slow but ultimatum is fast paced action. the suspense really captured me the first time i saw it & still does. jason bourne finally finds out who he really is. wat a way to end the bourne films. one of the best action movie's ever. it was action-packed from start to finish with car chases, & fighting in it, overall this is a great action movie & i recommend it to anyone who is into that genre, awesome movie. 5/5 stars.
John McClane (Bruce Willis) is back in this fast paced action packed rollercoaster ride. This time around John has to face to new daring enemy named Thomas Gabriel (Timothy Olyphant) who wants to shut down the United States. Now, with the help of a computer hacker (Justin Long) by John's side, together they must stop Gabriel & save the world. This time its not so easy for John. As John & the hacker are trying to stop Gabriel's plan, Gabriel takes someone that's really close to John, his daughter Lucy McClane (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), that ticks John off that much worse about Gabriel. Now, John puts his live on the line to stop Gabriel's plan by taking out the bad guys & getting back his daughter by any means necessary.
Live free or Die Hard is my favorite out of the Die Hard trilogy. It is very entertaining filled with alot of high voltage action sequences from the start & doesn't stop till the final conclusion. The action stunts were so real which made this movie even better to watch. My favorite sequence was when John McClane blew up a hellicopter with a car & he said he was out of bullets. That was the best memorable scene of the movie I think.
Bruce Willis does another outstanding job as our hero. I just love seeing him having fun in his role which makes this film that much more enjoyable to watch. Even though this one is PG-13, Bruce still kills the bad guys in brutal violent ways. Bruce still is my favorite actor today & probably will ever be.
Timothy Olyphant who is Bruce's nemisis in this one is very dark & full of anger.I thought Timothy's character Thomas Gabriel was John McClane's worst so far because of the fact that he had the guts to take his daughter & tried to kill him. From seeing Timothy's performance in this movie, he is now officially one of my favorite actors. Timothy has the right stuff to play any character he wants. Hope to see him take on more evil roles like this.
What can I say about Justin Long, BRILLANT!!! Justin's acting ceases to improve everytime i see him star in a film. Justin almost stole his film by his intelligence. It was defenitly a shocker for me to see Justin take on a role of a computer hacker who has to have smarts into knowing waht he's doing. He defenitly pulled it off. Justin is going to very big star soon. Can't wait to see him in more movies. Most talented young actor yet.
The young a sexy Mary Elizabeth Winstead who played the daughter, Lucy. All I can say is she's on her way to a great career. Mary has a big future in the future. She also looks like she could pass for a model as one of the sexiest young actresses. Mary played her role very well & made & impact on this trilogy by portraying Bruce Willis's daughter.
Maggie Q who was Olyphant's hot asian operator/assassin made her character believable enough. Maggie is the first asian actress that can actually act. I just loved watching her kick John's butt & listening to her sexy accent. Maggie should pass for a model too. Hope to see her in more films such as action like this one. Maggie is one my favorite actresses that has come so far as a good actress. Hope she keeps up the good work showing her acting & looks off in films in the furture.
If you haven't seen this movie yet, go out & grab yourself a copy on dvd because its a must own. They have an Unrated & Theactrical Version. The Unrated one is the best because it has alot of scenes that wern't shown in the original. Trust me this movie is worth buying & adding to your DVD collection. It's the best Die Hard yet.
John McClane: "Yippi-kay-ay, motherfu - "
John McClane: I'm going to go kill this guy & get my daughter or go get my daughter & kill this guy, kill all of them.
John McClane: Mai? Oh, yeah. Little Asian chick, likes to kick people? I don't think she's gonna be talkin' to anybody for a really long time. Last time I saw her she was at the bottom of a elevator shaft with an SUV rammed up her ass.
John McClane: Yeah, you had to dispatch all units for all the naked people walkin' around?
John McClane: I know I'm not as smart as you guys with all this computer shit. But, hey... I'm still alive, ain't I? I mean, you've *got* to be running out of bad guys by now, right? Huh? Gabriel? Honestly, you can tell me. I mean, how does that work? Got some kind of service or something? Some kind of 800 number? 1-800-HENCHMEN? Oh, you know what? I bet you're still on hold with, "Can I get another dead Asian hooker bitch over here right away?"
John McClane: I could come and find you, kick your ass and throw you out of your own party. What do you think about that, dickhead?
this was a great battle movie between the spartans & persians. i thought it had alot of special effects from the fight sequences which made it look like a superhero movie which i thought was really cool.. the acting was top-notch from everyone on screen especially from gerald butler who played leonidas. he was absolutely brillant as his character. i really thought the color & mood went great with the movie. also this is a very violent movie with a litt bit of gore to add in. overall this is a great action/war movie. i recommend this one to everyone who loves action movies 4/5 stars.
Mark Wahlberg wants justice in this action-packed/mystery/thriller, Shooter. Shooter is about an sniper ex-marine named Bobby Lee Swagger (Mark Wahlberg) who lost his best friend in the army & takes full responsibility.
Suffering from that for months, Bobby Lee gets called back into action when a Colonel (Danny Glover) comes to him for help to plot an assassination on someone who wants to kill the President. Bobby Lee doesn't really know if they can be trusted but he wants to help them anyway to get back on his feet.
A few days later, Bobby Lee heads to the location where the assassination will be taken place & scopes out where he thinks would be a good place to take the shot of the bad guy. When the time comes when Bobby Lee thinks the assasination is suppose to begin, something goes terribly wrong when the shot aims for the President but ends up missing him. When Bobby Lee witnesses that, he ends up getting shot & set up by the Colonel that he's the shooter. Bobby Lee ends up being a fugitive that the police & the goverment are after. In some way, Bobby Lee outsmarts them by escaping.
Bobby Lee is hurt & running not knowing who he can trust except one person which is his old partners girlfriend, Sarah (Kate Mara). Sarah nurses Bobby so he'll be healed to get back in shape. Sarah saves Bobby's life by doctoring him. After Bobby Lee is all well, he starts plotting to find the ones who tried to kill him.
Meanwhile, an FBI agent named Nick Memphis (Michael Pena) is trying to help Bobby Lee come clean by trying to prove to everyone he's innocent. Bobby Lee uses Memphis by training him as his partner to solve the conspiracy of why they want him dead. Bobby Lee will stop at nothing to get justice & make sure whoever is responsible pays for setting him up.
Shooter is an excellent & exciting action/thriller. It's the fugitve meets Rambo. This one provides alot of hight class entertainment like you wouldn't believe. It keeps you hooked right from the start with executed action sequences that are a blast till the explosive concluson. The story never gets slow or boring. It's really smart & engaging that keeps you interested & watching. The acting is completely brillant.
The actor that you realy need to watch is Mark Wahlberg. This is his best role he's took on in his career. I was shocked of how good he puled off his character. The character he played makes you think that he would actually be a sniper marine in real life of how he talks explains about his weapon & uses it. I could defenitly picture him as a marine. I tell ya, Mark made one heck of an action hero in this one. Mark is like Rambo in everyway. This movie alone made Mark Wahlberg a big action star. I can't wait to see what action role he takes on next. So pumped up for that. Hope he keeps the talented acting & stays badass.
The second person I liked in this film was Mark's best friend girlfriend, Kate Mara. She is one incredible upcoming actress. The chemistry between her & Mark was truely believible & outstanding. I think Kate is very beautiful & wonderful actress. Oh yeah, I almost forgot, she's very good with a gun so watch out as you can see above. Hope to see mroe of her in films. So far she's one of the greatest upcoming young actresses. Hope she keeps up the good work.
Third, is Danny Glover who played the Colonel. It's been a while since Danny had took on a role & I can understand he struggle's in some scenes but he comes out clean just the same. Danny still is one of the best actors that ever lived. He makes you keep watching him by whatever he pulls up on screen. Some people will think that he's a little different but he still has the acting in him. Danny will always will be one of my favorite's of all time. He never looses his touch or fustrates on what he's doing in a film. He stays with it & keeps it going till he's finished & he succeeds.
Fourth, is the young & talented Michael Pena. That dude takes his roles very well & makes his character so believible you couldn't imagine. He's right up there with the upcoming young intelligent actors around. Michael shows us how smart & how far he's willing to go to impress you ever watches him on screen. I liked how he joined Mark taking down the bad guys & how he was right by his side all the way through. I thought they made a pretty good team. Michael is one of the greats today.
Lastly but certainly not least is the beautiful Rhona Mitra. She also has a good role in this one as she works with helping Michael Pena's character. I just love watching this woman act with her wonderful talents over the years. Every role she takes one, she ceases to impress me everytime i see her. Rhona is so fine if I was her age I would defenitly date her. She has the most finest bod & legs out of any actress that I've seen. Gosh, just would love to meet her one of these days. Not because she's so gorgeous & all but her acting ability. Can't wait to see what she stars in next.
As for all the actors in this movie I didn't really care for because they had small roles & didn't even get into them that much.
Shooter is my #4 movie of all time now. It's mainly because it has a great storyline, great amount of action, & suspense throughout. By far this is Mark Wahlberg's best & action movie to date. I just love watching this movie over & over again. I'll never get tired of it. It will remain one of my greats. Shooter will always be a big movie in my dvd collection that will never get old to watch. Shooter is without a doubt a unforgettable action film that will always be remembered.
Bobby Lee Swagger: I'm going to burn their playhouse down.
Smokn' Aces features an all star cast in this action/crime/drama/thriller about assassins who are hired by a mom boss named Sparazza to put a hit on a magician named Buddy "Ace" Israel (Jeremy Piven). Israel gets taken into protective custody where's he's being held in a hotel penthouse. In the mean time, two FBI Agents (Ray Liota) & (Ryan Reynolds) rush to get to Ace before the hitmen do. When everyone collide's at the hotel, they start rounding up amonition to go at it in a showdown where anyone will be lucky enough to survive.
Smokin' Aces is one of the most entertaining crime movie's I've ever seen. I wasnt expecting the story that I got but It was very interesting nonetheless. I thought the story took a while to get anywhere but I understood that everything had to be set up by getting to know the characters & such. Even though moved slow, the plot kept me engaged & interested to see what would happen next. When the action takes place its a brutal, gritty & bloody mess. This film also comes off with alot of comedy that made me laugh. I thought the cast was exceptional with their character.
The one I was very suprised from alicia keys. Alicia played a great bad*** sexy assassin, Geogia Skyes. Alicia kicked butt against everyone. I really didn't like the fact that she played a lesbian because I could never see her that way especially the way she was acting towards her girlfriend. I think Alicia needs to star in more movies like this one. Alicia made it really fun to watch. She also is very hot. I just loved her in this. Hope to see more of her. I think she needs to have two careers instead of one.
The second actor who took me by surprise was Ryan Reynolds. Man, he knows how to carry a role. Ryan really showed me how good of an actor he really is by using emotion. Ryan did what he had to do with his part & he succeeded them. Ryan has come along ways to a ok actor to one of the greatest in my book. Hope he keeps it up because I think he's going to be big one of these days.
Jeremy Piven is one of those next. I remember seeing him in comedies & never once thought that he would pull off something like this. All I have to say is well done. Jeremy really entertained me by watching him act in this. He did a great job with his character showing off his majacian skills & putting off some emotional moments. Jeremy can actually act & didn't think it was possibl;e till he took this role. As far as I can see, Jeremy can pretty much play any character he wants. Can't wait to see what serious role he takes on next.
I thought the tremor brothers played by Chris Pine & Kevin Durand were psychotic. I tell ya, once their mind is on something they go for it. Their as mean as it gets when it comes to assasinations. They think of the most brutal ways to kill someone like their chainsaws & machete's. I really enjoyed watching them on screen. Their one of the reasons why this movie was entertaining.
When you watch this movie, just remember its not an all out action movie. It's an crime/drama filled with suspensful moments with some action involving brutal bloody violence thrown in. So if thats not your cup of tea then stay away. Overall, Smokin' Aces is a very cool entertaining hitman movie with alot of twists & turns.
The Marine is a explosive action/thriller about an ex-marine named John Triton (John Cena) who gets discharged for diaobeying a direct order. Now that John is no longer a marine, he goes home to his beautiful wife (Kelly Calson) & plans to spend time with her till he can get back on track with things. Jonn tell his wife, that he can't sit around without dong anything. He tells her that he has to get a job so he can stay busy. So John finds a job as a security job for the mean time. Things get bad for John when a business man comes in & starts causing trouble. John gets fired for harming him. John goes home & his wife talks to him about going on a vacation, just the two of them. So they both agree on that & they start their vacation the next morning. As John & his wife are on the road, they end up stopping at a gas station where a professional criminal named Rome (Robert Patrick) kidnaps John's wife. Now John is back in action as he goes on a dangerous mission by getting back his wife & using his military skills to take out the bad guys one by one by any means necessary. I The Marine has alot of nontop action sequences that were very intense. It had the most amount of high intensity explosions I've ever seen in a movie. The movie did look kinda fake in parts but it was a very fun ride from start to finish. I really enjoyed every minute of this film. It had good entertainment value to keep you satisfied throughout. John Cena did a pretty decent job for his first flick. He didn't have much lines in this one but how much do you expect from someone's first starring role. John really kicked *** in this movie. He uses his wrestling moves which I thought was very cool coming from a wrestler. Kelly Carlson is very sexy to watch & look at. She gave a pretty good performance as well. Robert Patrick was a pretty good villian that was very edgy & vicious. I didn't really care for the other actors in this movie because their acting was so choppy. I know the other actors could've done a whole lot better on their acting. Thats the only reason you would have a hard time watching this flick but when the action heats up, its so entertaining to watch. You get shocked till the very end. Believe me, there is enough action to go around for the fans. Overall, I recommend this movie for action junkies. Its not a movie to be taken seriously, just one to watch by turning your brain off & enjoy. The Marine is full of action with spectacular adrenaline & nonstop thrills. 3 1/2 stars
Crank is a highly entertaining action/thriller about a professional hitman named Chev Chelios (Jason Statham) who gets injected with a shot of poison in it called the bajing cocktail thats suppose to kill him in one hour. Now Chelios must keep his heart pumping by using anything the doctor recommends for him to use for his heart & find the people who tried to kill him by getting revenge before he runs out of time. Crank is a top notch thrill ride around every turn. He keeps you on the edge throughout the movie. I really enjoyed this movie & hope everyone feels the same way I do about this film. Its a great stylish high tech rollercoaster ride. 4 stars
this was a good litt action/crime/thriller. thought it was very entertaining throughout. tyrese gibson is getting better as an actor everytime he stars in a movie. i have a feeling that he's going to be big one of these days. the other actors were decent enough. this plot was good enough, action was good, & suspense was good also. its sort of predictable movie but as u watch it u still enjoy it nonetheless. overall i recommend this movie for action junkies. this is not a great movie, its just a very good one. awesome movie 3 1/2 stars.
this is the best one out of the trilogy. it had more action, suspense, excitement, & entertainment. it kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish. the acting as great. everything was just great. this movie is a must see for all action junkies. i love it & i'm sure yall will too. so go out & get urself a copy if u havent already got it. everyone should own this movie in their dvd collection. one of the best action movies ever 4 1/2 stars.
i think this is the best superman of them all. brandon routh does a excellent job portraying clark kent aka superman. he is just like christopher reeve back when we played superman. he looks & talks like him in everywhere. this was a outstanding & amazing movie to watch. kevin spacey who played lex luthor was great too. a litt psychotic but still great. this was also a very entertaining movie to watch from start to finish. it has a great story, alot of action in every direction, amazing special effects & romace. i cant wait for the next one which is going to be called superman: man of steel. overall i recommend this movie to all superman & action fans, a super movie 5/5.
this was an awesome action/political thriller. this was also a very entertaining movie with a great supporting cast. michael douglas & kiefer sutherland the 2 main ppl u need to watch in this movie. their acting is fantastic in this movie. they r wat makes this film succeed. everyone else on screen is good too. this movie has alot of action chase sequences throughout which makes this movie so cool to watch. i recommend this movie to all viewers who like action/suspense/thrillers. its one that u dont wont to miss, it's a very good movie 3 1/2 stars.
Bruce Wills is back in action as a Detective named Jack Mosely who gets assigned to escort a criminal named Eddie (Mos Def) to a courthouse that is just 16 Blocks away. As the two of them are on the way to the courthouse, Jack finds out that not only is Eddie a criminal but a witness as well when Jack's ex-partner Det. Nugent (David Morse) comes & tells him that Eddie was going to testify against him & cops who commited a murder.Nugent offers Jack to turn Eddie over to him & join them to save the police force but Jack decides that he doesn't want to go that way, only to protect Eddie. Now, Jack & Eddie is in a race against time as they are surrounded by cops who want to bring them down. Jack must keep Eddie alive from Nugent & the crooked cops & make sure that they reach the courthouse before they end up dead.
16 Blocks is a great action film filled with exciting twists & turns that will have your heart racing. From the start it pulls you in by getting right to the point & your in for the ride. It's complete nonstop action that never lets up till the very end. Doesn't have time to stop for anything as Bruce & Mos keep running throughout the film trying to survive. There is plenty of gunfights & full of violent situations that they have to face. 16 Blocks is just faced-paced entertainment that you get hooked on. The plot is one of the best I've heard & very powerful with great acting. Bruce Willis is still the man kicking butt & doing what he does best which is entertaining the audience. Mos Def is really good as Eddie panicking wanting to stay alive. I think that Bruce & Mos made a good team working out their differences in the life or death situation. David Morse also gives a outstanding performance as Nugent, the crooked cop on Bruce & Moss's tail to stop them from talking. I actually think Morse almost stole the show. I've seen him in other films where he's good but in this he's about oscar-worthy. Overall, if your looking for a great action/thriller with enough suspense to go around then this is for you. 16 Blocks is actually one of the best action flms of 06. I enjoyed every minute of this watching the acting & exciting action sequences that keep you on the edge making you feel that your right there with Bruce & Moss. 16 Blocks is a hardcore action-packed rollercoaster thrill ride that will have your heart pumping that you don't want to be over.
this was in intelligent suspense/thriller. it such an awesome movie to watch. it keeps u entertained & interested throughout. harrison ford & paul bettany were great in this movie. when u watch both of them go at it, its so fun to watch. this movie did have a litt action going for it but by all means, its not an action movie. i had a great time watching it & i'm sure everyone else will too. i recommend this movie to all u like suspense movies & harrison ford. u like both of those things then u'll love this movie 3 1/2 stars.
fantastic four is one of my all-time fav superhero movies. it had a lot of intense action scenes throughout. the acting was great from the whole cast especially the sexy hot jessica alba. the movie was so entertaining & keeps u hooked till the very end. their were alot of fight scenes between the superheros & villan especially at the end. their was also a fair amount of comedy in this movie which was very funny in parts. overall this is a great superhero movie. i recommend to all u loves action & superheros, 4/5 stars.
this was a pretty good video game addaption. it also a good action/advenure movie. it was entertaining a enough. the only thing i didnt like bout this movie was the acting. it had an all-star cast which couldnt acted for one bit. it was so hard to watch them. when the action starts, u get into the movie more. this movie does have alot of good fight scenes in it which r very violent & bloody throughout. overall this is a pretty good movie. its either one u love or hate but i loved it. i recommend this movie to all action junkies only. turn ur brain off & just have fun watching this entertaining action/adventure movie, 3/5 stars.
this is the 2nd best video game addaption ever made. doom is a big action/adventure movie that keeps u entertained from begining till end. it has alot of action including gunfights, explosions, & suspense. this is also a very violent & bloody movie with alot of gore throughout. the cast did exceptionally well including the rock who played sarge. i thought he was amazing with his character. he shows everyone how mean & vicious a commanding officer can really be. this movie looked just like the video game especiially when they put the first person shooter in. i thought that was really part & cool for the director. he knows exactly how a video game addaption movie should be made. overall this movie was absolutely amazing & awesome. i recommend this movie for all violent action junkies who dont mind gore. if u do this movie is defenitly not for u trust me, great action/adventure video game addaption movie, 5/5 stars.
Blade (Wesley Snipes) is back for the final battle in this action-packed full throttle sequel. This one begins with a vampire pack searching for Blade worst & darkest enemy ever, Dracula aka Drake (Dominic Purcell). After the vampire clan finds Drake, they take him back with them so he can defeat Blade. One night when Blade is hunting the undead, he realizes that he's been set up by one of the vampires named Danica Talos (Parker Posey). Blade gets caught by the police & taken in for questioning. While Blade is with the cops, Danica comes for Blade by trying to kill him. Moments later, a team of vampire hunters called the Nightstalkers that involves a bad*** named Hannibal King (Ryan Reynolds) & the sexy Abigail Whistler (Jessica Biel), Whistler's daughter frees Blade & escapes from Danica & her clan.

Now, Blade, Hannibal & Abigail must find Drake & fight him & his evil pack by using Daystar so they can finally end the vampire race for good.
Blade Trinity is a goodaction/horror sequel thats very entertaining. Wesley Snipes is good once again as Blade kicking butt as always. He still has the fight in him. In this one, Wesley actually has some comic lines which was cool to see. I always thought that Blade was suppose to be a serious character but I guess their's nothing wrong with having a little comedy thrown in there.
The upcoming actor Dominic Purcell played a good as Drake. He was very frightening & horrifying at moments. The fight between Dominic & WEsley was off the hook. Dominic put on a good show.
The gothic Danica Talos who was played by Parker Posey was sexy, scary & freaky vampire. There were some scenes in this film where her hair due was ridiculous, just ask Hannibal King. He'll give you all the facts. That still didn't disappoint her performance. Parker was still on target for her character.
Everyone else on screen was good too. This movie did have a number of action sequences throughout. The violence was intense. The only thing I didnt like about ths movie was the dracula story. I thought Dracula was suppose to be a vampire only. It just so happens he turns in a strange looking monster dragon thing. I thought that was kinda corny. Overall, this thrid entry has alot going for it that I recommend for action junkies/horror fans. Just watch & have fun, Blade Trinity is action-packed rollercoaster thats full of graduious entertainment, & good laughs that will leave you breathless.
He's fought the forces of darkness alone...until now.
i thought van helsing was a great horror/action movie. it had a ton of action/horror scenes which sometimes were very disturbing but still cool. hugh jackman was fantastic for the role of van helsing. he brought everything to the table with that character. i was very suprised by his performance. kate beckinsale was great also with ur accent and all. everyone else on screen were great too. this is a very entertaining movie. i recommend this movie for action junkies & monster fans, 4/5 stars.
the punisher is a great action packed movie. thomas jane played a great punisher. he was very vicious, brutal, & emotional just how the punisher is. thats wat makes him a good punisher. this is a very entertaining movie. it had a bunch of nonstop action sequences with gunfights & explosions. john travolta played a great bad guy. his acting was great just like everyone elses on screen. i cant wait for the 2nd punisher movie. i heard tom jane is not going to play the punisher but thats ok. he stole this movie with his performance. just hope the next punisher is just as good as he was as the punisher. overall i recommend this movie for action fans. its a movie that u dont wont to miss, awesome action flick 4/5 stars

What a great action/war movie & it had plenty of it. One of Bruce Willis best & finest performaces. He was excellent in this movie leading his marines into a dangerous mission against the gorillas. Everyone else lights up the screen but Bruce Willis more because he's the main actor. He did an amazing job as Lt. Waters. This is a very sad movie & one that will never be forgotten. It is a very heart felt story. It is quite violent at times but great nonetheless. Its one to watch over & over again. I know because thats the reason I bought the movie. I love it 5/5 stars.
this is an awesome action/war movie. its very sad one though. it has an outstanding cast with strong performances. the action was very intense & realistic. sometimes it makes me feel a litt oozey when i see the brutal war scenes. they contain violent images of gore which is not very pleasant to see but thats how war is. overall this is a great entertaining war movie. i recommend this movie for war/action fans 5/5 stars

Now, Blade must stop Deacon's plan by using his martial art & weaponary skills to slay all the vampires before its the end of the human race.
Blade is a very action packed movie with lots & lots of gunfights, swordplay, & martial arts. Wesley does great as Blade. He does everything a vampire hunter would do. Wesley basically kicks the vampires butts in this movie. Stephen Dorff which was the head vampire Decon does great. Stephen makes his character a very deadly, vicious, furocious vampire. The story was great, action was great, violence & galore was great too. The special effects were top notch. Overall, Blade is very entertaining actionier. I recommend this movie for all Blade & Wesley Snipes fans. TWO VERY BIG THUMBS UP!!!!!!! Blade is a flat out bloodsoaking vampire actionier full of pure horror & spectacular fireworks.

spawn is a very cool action/horror flick. spawn is bout an assassin who is sent to hell by his boss where he is given a chance to lead the devils army to the holy land & destroy it. spawn goes against the devil & becomes a superhero to protect other ppls lives from the darkness. thats wat i really liked bout this film is that he didnt join the devil. he was on gods side by trying to figure out who he really is & wat he is capable of. this is a very entertaning dark movie with alot of disturbing things going on throughout. it has alot nonstop action gunfights & explosions. the acting was great from everyone. overall i recommend this movie for all spawn & action fans. this movie is a very scary & disturbing movie at times so if u cant handle that dont watch it b/c thats wat this movie is all bout. in the end, this is a very cool action packed thrill in a minute movie 4/5 stars.

Bruce Willis stars in this action/thriller as an FBI Agent named Art Jefferies who is assigned to look after a 9-year old retarted boy named Simon (Miko Hughes) who supposely looked at a crossword & found an ecrypted number that leads to a terrorist organization where the head leader, Nick Kudrow (Alec Baldwin) wants dead. It's up to Agent Jefferies to keep Simon alive from Kudrow & go behind the mystery why the organization wants to terminate Simon.
Mercury Rising is a pretty good film for Willis. It's not his over the top action blockbuster like the Die Hard trilogy but its not that bad either. Mercury still provides the butt kicking from Willis just like all his other movies. To me, this is a suspense/thriller than action one. The action is good when it comes but its really set on a thrilling adventure with good acting. The movie gets right to the point with the story & keeps you on the edge with it throughout. Bruce Willis gives a good performance playing the cop protecting Miko Huges who was such a surprise as the retarted boy, Simon. There's no surprise about Alec Baldwin as he's one of the best underrated actors of all-time. So you know exactly what to expect from him. Alec wasn't the best villian I've seen mainly because he hasn't played much in a film before probably why I couldn't see it. Alec still did what he had to do to make the audience keep watching him. I was kinda disappointed that Willis & Baldwin didn't have much chemistry with each other. Overall, if your a fan of the cast/thrills/a bit of action, I highly recommend this as its a nonstop ride from start to finish. Mercury Rising is ok action film but big on thrilling suspense that will give you an adventure of a lifetme.

Years later, Archer captured Troy in a hangout at a airport during a violent shootout.

There is only one problem, Archer doesnt know which building the bomb is hidden in. Now, the only way Archer can find out that info & bring Castor down, is for Archer to take Troy's identity by becoming him so he can trap him.
Face off has a ton nonstop action sequences including shootouts, chasing, & explosions throughout. The acting was great from everyone including the main stars of the movie which are John Travolta & Nicolas Cage. It has alot of bad language so dont be suprised when you watch this film. John Woo did excellent job with the gunfight scenes & set pieces. I really enjoyed this film & I'm sure everyone else will feel the same way too. This is also a very entertaining action flick so you wont be bored one bit while watching it. Overall, I recommend this movie for action junkies only, nothing more. Face Off is a rocket.full adrenaline pumping action.

Everywhere Doc & Carol turn danger heads towards them where they have no choice to defend theirselves during violent shootouts & high speed chases to stay alive.
The Getaway is a fun, exciting ride from start to finish. It's extremely entertaining actioner filled with heartponding suspense & electryfying action at every turn. When I first watched this, I didn't know that it was a remake. I haven't seen the original so i can't tell ya if it was better than the remake. I can tell ya this, that I found this remake to be good. Alec & Kim are at their best which by the way makes a wonderful couple even though sometimes they argue too much but I guess thats the extent of their relationship. The married couple acted as it was in real life. They were both good & enjoyed their performances. Warning: this film does display some strong sexuality exspecially in the uncut & unrated version which may violate to younger viewers. Even though this wasn't a great action film. It had fantastic moments of gunplay where it used some of John Woo slo-mo in some scenes that I found intriguing. I loved the way that was put in where it made the action stylistic in those sequences. Their's a good shootout towards the end that has lots of the slo-mo going on. One of the best shootouts i've witnessed in a long time. I just thought this was exhilerating film with good plot, good acting, good action, & shocking suspense. All this film is good for is entertainment & that's exactly what it gives ya. The Getaway is adventurous story driven sexy action/thriller filled with explosive mindblowing gunfights & chases that keeps you rooting for more.

Passenger 57 is enjoyable fun action/thriller that holds no punches as you watch Wesley do what he does best which is taking you for a good action ride taking down the bad guys & saving the day.
This was a pretty good die hard movie. The only thing that was wrong with this one is that it didnt have enough action to keep the movie entertained. It dragged out a little bit towards the middle but still was alright. It still is a very good die hard movie just not one of the best in the trilogy. Overall still worth watching. 3 1/2 stars
