Even in this, while not nearly as obvi...Absolutely. Even in this, while not nearly as obvious as say in The Expendables films, it's still sad to see them just almost automatically do it this way now. It's a rare thing indeed to see a director actually take the time to use real squibs. They need to seriously bring that back! <br /><br />And as I watched this, all I kept thinking was how awful the last few Die Hard films have been and how much this guy reminded me of John McClane in the first 2 films and how this should have been a Die Hard entry. Back to the roots, and none of this global scale terrorist shit. robotGEEKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00355070295108163031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7959025705353546660.post-21418695172433538072013-09-26T12:22:55.531-07:002013-09-26T12:22:55.531-07:00Agreed! Man, he owned this role. He reminded me so...Agreed! Man, he owned this role. He reminded me so much of a wise cracking John McClane. lol. And overall, I just loved how over the top it was and how violent. You don't see too many of these types of films anymore.....sadly. robotGEEKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00355070295108163031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7959025705353546660.post-13377029323066841352013-09-09T08:31:01.825-07:002013-09-09T08:31:01.825-07:00I totally agree with you on the Die Hard compariso...I totally agree with you on the Die Hard comparison. This was so much better than those watered down movies. I didn't mind the CG, but I really hate the trend now of using CG blood instead of proper blood squibs. Takes me out of the action right away.rennmaxbetahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11194685520231517099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7959025705353546660.post-38132500387742156462013-08-16T05:06:42.364-07:002013-08-16T05:06:42.364-07:00Short and sweet review.
