Cast: Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jim Caviezel(Hobbes), Faran Tahir(Javed)
Director: Mikael Håfström
Genre: Thriller, Action
You will have as you expect. It surely is an entertainer
Pluses:
- Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger together is quite a pleasure to watch in itself, although amount of action in it is a tad less, hope none is expecting it to be a hard core action flick, it wont disappoint you then
- Sylvester Stallone is the man of the movie. All tricks , good application of basic science and general alertness, comprises of his role with a sense of eccentricity in his usual character. He keeps you engaged and the show running
- The movie keeps screening at a certain pace which never slows down or disengage you, which is a good thing
Lukewarm:
- The basic embodiment of the movie is not any outstanding, its just about fine and pretty much a regular affair.If not for the smaller tips and tricks, it could have harmed the entire plot to a bigger extent. After all we have seen many movies having similar theme, being captured or played with, locked out of somewhere you have no clue, and base the rest on the survival instincts. Rings any bell!! We have many such movies!
- Jim Caviezel is a lukewarmish bad guy, not much of torture is it! :) Audience could peharps take a little bit gory content coming from him making the plot more raunchier,but alas!
- Faran Tahir is a tepid support there
- Not really such a secure prison, after all ! :) I didnt find it all that hard for Sylvester to crack it :) The only justification is its tag line, "No one breaks it alone". But whats the big deal about that! :D
After all the hype, the movie lacked a punch in there. With all the good releases around this month, i cant consider this up to the mark or comparable!
My rating: 3/5
