First off -- awesome movie poster. :)

Mindless action flick with some good names. Could be interesting...or really, really terrible.

    I found a few trailers, but none of any worthy quality. I'm sure if someone finds one they'll post it.

    I have a man crush on Jason Statham, so I'll watch it.

    It has potential! Hopefully it lives up to the marquee names and the awesome poster!

    Dolf Lundgren?!!!?!!! I think my left **** just exploded from the sheer awesomeness.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    It has actually been screened a few times already. The early word is its really good. It's a throwback to the 80's action flicks many of us grew up on. Can't wait to see it myself.

    Stallone has actually been doing some good stuff as of late. He has become sorta nostalgic lately and seems to be making sure these films he's directing don't suck. Rocky Balboa was really well done and Rambo was great fun as well. The next Rambo is in production as well.

    Looks like a fun films though, gotta love the cast.
    If...
    Ron dislikes a film = go out and buy it.
    Ron loves a film = don't even rent.
