Can't be stressed enough...this movie is poop.

Some of the shooting and killing stuff is cool as hell. I got a kick out of that Somali pirate getting cut in two, and Terry Crews making cherry cobbler with that auto shotgun was nice. But, that's a few seconds out of an unbearable experience.

It's hard to overstate just how awful the script and dialogue was in this movie...just REALLY bad...junior high level shit.

Nothing to see here...lots of cussing, and towel snapping, and grab assing, and some shooting and knife throwing...and not a single bitch got naked. WTF was up with that? If you're gonna make the ultimate guys movie then there needs to be some anal full nelsons with ass-to-mouth finishes on some fine ass bitches.

this is not a movie meant to win a fucking Oscar.

Its not script worthy.

Its filled with violence, cursing, testosterone, insanity and craziness.

Its a fucking fun time. This isn't "Schindler's List", relax and enjoy the festival of bullets.

I hear what you're saying.

There are many bad movies that are good.

I'm a fan of those movies.

This is a bad movie that is just bad.

My son pooped in his lunchbox because I pissed him off, and I got more entertainment out of that than this toilet bowl of a movie.

I am with Kaz on this one.

Just because a movie is going to be ultra-violent doesn't mean that cinematically it has to be shit, or have a script a retard wrote.

For examples proving this point, see "The Horseman" (on Netflix streaming) or "Harry Brown," both recommended on here previously, and both outstanding films.

If "The Horseman" isn't violent enough for your movie tastes, I think you're a candidate for Videodrome...

I was expecting the last Rambo movie to suck and thought it was pretty good and I was expecting this movie to rock and it blew.

I expected great action porn. I got a vid of Statham and Stallone giving each other hand jobs.

I was only in one of them, Rambo III and it would have been a hit had it not been released at the same time Dutch & Gorby were being all chummy. With that said, the other three were better movies.

Now, run along or do I need to tell a new generation of IGx'ers your story of pink spray paint? :finga: :supz: :rock: :superfuckingpissed:

On the positive side, Stallone found an actor even more incoherent than him in Lundgren.
