Now that I have seen it I wonder what they would do to make a third, they used up all the one liner references in one go here, you can only say "I'll be back" and get the laughs once, any more and its simply annoying.
Its a great action movie with a done to death plot, but that's ok, cos you don't expect a plot any more than you expect acting.
Jean-Claude Van Damme,turned down a role in number one due to it being 'insubstantial' so he must have skipped reading the screenplay for this one, though any interviews I have seen from him would have you think he was 'in charge' of production for this movie. Oh! has he had another facelift or is it the slathering's of make up he's wearing? Same with Arnie, still I think JCD did a not bad job as the villain.
I still cant figure when Carlos Ray Norris became famous for being a badass, maybe it was simply kids watching too much 'Walker, Texas Ranger' on TV where he got to beat up a bunch of guy's called Carlos on a weekly basis or whatever. I am all for the joke......but seriously...
The next ensemble movie is to be 'The Unwatchables 3' where Steven Seagal and another bunch of of old fossils who turned down this one because of 'tensions' with whomever will get the chance to throw out one liners, except all his movies are exactly the same so the movie is expected to be only ten minutes in length, it looks like becoming a fad which like any fad will fade away.....hopefully.
Oh! just one more thing, someone I know interviewed Steven Seagal a while back where he claimed to have been in the 'Special Forces' a quick check revealed the military had 'no recollection of these events' nor of a Steven Frederic Seagal.
Maybe he thought the Brits wont know any better or he was so deep undercover even Jason Bourne never heard of him.
Awesome! Its one of those threads.
