GI Joe: Retaliation
No lies when I am a big GI Joe fan and while I found 2009's Rise of Cobra entertaining, I found so much flawed, tinkered with and changed for big screen appeal or other reasons that it left a sour …

The Expendables 2
2010's The Expendables was a grand celebration of corny action movies with plenty of big names and big action.  Upon watching it more I saw it did have flaws such as quick cuts of shaky cam and …

Ahh Arnold, corny and campy 80's action movies aren't quite the same without you or Sly or even Dolph hanging around and this one about a violent game show which puts prisoners through a gauntlet …

As I said before, the character of The Incredible Hulk is like instant pudding: impossible to screw up.  There can't be anything too difficult about a man who rages out into a giant green monster …

Domino is one of those movies that should have just worked on every level.  Theres a great cast with Keira Knightly, Mickey Rourke and Christopher Walken.  A cool story about bounty hunting, …

First Blood
   You always hear about in movies or other media about someone named Rambo being a bad ass or a tough guy.  He could very well be one of the greatest in movie history and you'd almost …

Die Another Day
Die Another Day.......this one has been coming for a while.      The best way I can put this movie is that if you took Pierce Brosnan as Bond, and asked him to make a Bond movie with …

Super Mario Bros. (1993)
In the annals of "video game movies suck" this one film can still remain king for one reason.  It became the trend setter for all of them to follow as with all video game movies, it bears …

Hudson Hawk
One of the most infamously bad movies of all time for being a bomb at the box office, it's in production ego stories and bad jokes and writing, Hudson Hawk is often laughed at by it's mere mention.  …

Magnum Force (1973)
After a pretty cut and dry ending to the original Dirty Harry, fans were surprised to see this sequel pop up a couple of years later and the ending for the first movie being that Harry had lost his faith …

The Dead Pool (1988)
The Dead Pool was the 5th and final of Dirty Harry's big screen adventures and after the tepidness of Sudden Impact, Harry's swan song could have ended worse.      Harry Calahan …

The Enforcer (1976)
The Enforcer is so gimmick laden and heavy handed that you really have to admire how entertaining it remains in spite of this.      I was interested in what this movie had to offer, …

Tango & Cash
Is it possible for a movie to be as corny as it is cheesy?  Can it still be fun even though the drivel you see before you is pretty bad?  Yes on all accounts with this cliche machine of a movie.   …

Ever see a movie that looked so dumb, you heard was dumb and then you see it and it isn't all that dumb?  Step on up to see Sly and Snipes tear apart the crapsaccharine world of a future LA.   …

Prince of Persia could be the start of another genre series of high action, special effect laden romps in the some vein as Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean films.  You got old tales of yore, …

2010 has been quite a year for odd action movies. We had The Expendables about a super group of action movie stars who save the world and later Machete where grizzled Danny Trejo kicks butt just North …

As this movie starts, you know subtlety is not it's strong point if a point at all.  Danny Trejo and some sidekick are cops who are being warned not to go after a kidnapped girl in a drug lord's …
