Grudge Match is pretty tired and cliched sports movie pablum, but made a lot more palatable by a cast willing to go the extra mile to make their own comedic opportunities.

One third of the Sylvester Stallone/Arnold Schwarzenegger team up Escape Plan is a decent popcorn action flick. The other two thirds are fairly abysmal. Fortunately, the good section is the middle hour of the film, meaning it’s a perfect film to watch on TV right after you missed the opening 30 minutes and right before you have to take off to be somewhere.

This week at the video store we look at the winning animated adventure ParaNorman, the action blockbuster The Expendables 2, the dance-stravaganza Step Up Revolution, the crap-stravaganza The Apparition, and a pair of films that missed theatrical releases despite being directed by Joe Dante and Amy Heckerling.
Does shit blow up? Yes. Does everyone get at least one good scene to showcase their talents? Yes. Is it better than the first film? Yes, and by quite a bit actually.
We talked to Expendables 2 co-stars Terry Crews and Randy Couture about teaming up once again with Sylvester Stallone and crew, shooting in Bulgaria, why this film was more relaxed than the first, casting rumours for the third film, and if Terry Crews thinks his crew could beat up The Avengers.

Our look at the career of Sylvester Stallone rolls on with a look at the surprisingly underrated Tango and Cash and the generally forgotten about Lock Up which find Sly on different sides of the law.
You're the disease, and he's the cure. This week we look at Sylvester Stallone's collaborations with Golan-Globus, better known as Cannon Films, producers of the "unforgettable" Cobra and Over the Top.
Our look at the career of Sylvester Stallone goes back and forward, looking at Sly's attempts at universal likability with his stint as a guest host on Saturday Night Live and his misbegotten country music film Rhinestone.
As our Stallone retrospective rolls on, we jump ahead oh so slightly to take a look at the writer-actor's political leanings in Rambo: First Blood Part II, Rocky IV, Rambo, and The Expendables.
