The Last Stand




Cast: Arnold Schwarzenegger,Eduardo Noriega(Cortez),Luis Guzmán(Senior Deputy Mike ),Rodrigo Santoro(Frank),Johnny Knoxville(Vintage arms collector Lewis ),Jaimie Alexander(Sarah),Peter Stormare(Burrell )
Director: Jee-Woon Kim
Genre: Action, Crime
 
You will enjoy the action :) Watch it
 
Pluses:
  • Arnold Schwarzenegger, goes without saying tops the list. Dont expect action from him right from the beginning till the end, he is old and story needs build up :) But this man over all the current generation action fellas, knows how well to re do same action with no different story plot and yet entertain the audience and retain his fan base :)
  • Eduardo Noriega, is the bad man, and you will love him. I want to see more of him in the future. He is not someone who is huge and ugly creature, but a rather swanky and gizmo man, doesnt make him any less dangerous. Didnt really want to see him defeated but the Hero needs to win :)
  • The other squad members viz. Luis Guzmán,Rodrigo Santoro,Johnny Knoxville,Jaimie Alexander and the supporting bad man Peter Stormare played their parts well
  • However, cliche the story be, thanks to Jee-Wonn Kim for not making it look like one. Given the other two releases of the week which requires you a lot of patience, this one comes as a life saviour with some adrenalin pump. While the other releases leave you cold, this one gets your heart thumping :)
 
Minuses:
 
I didnt like the character of 'Jerry' shown as an idiot cop, feel low about the poor actor :( :)
 
 
My rating: 3.5/5
