A disappointing waste of Dave Bautista's talent, The Killer's Game won't be high on anyone's career retrospective.
Arguably the best film of the franchise The Expendables 3 takes a lighter, sillier tone than its predecessors to deliver some passable action movie fun.
Though it takes a painfully long 40 minutes to even get to its point and to have any fun, the unbeatable comedic teaming of Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore rescues Blended and makes it one of the comic actors more tolerable efforts in years.
While Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 might not be directly created by the same writers and directors as the first incredibly delightful and hilarious animated outing, the sequel might actually be a tad bit better than the previously high set bar.
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.
