initial expectations

(2) The previews looked plain blah and meaningless to me. Blah. I wasn't expecting much from this movie at all.

(4) I can smell the testosterone...and it exites me. A rough-em-up-don't-mess-with-the-big-guy type movie fun!

pace

(2) I found the movie slow and dragging. I longed for the comfort of my bed a few times.

(2) Hold on here. Where's the quick moving build-up I've come to love from Stallone's action movies?

plot/story

(2)I felt kinda ripped off because the plot went in circles, when really, it was offensively simple!

(3) The story was good, but not what I expected. Instead of an action flick, it was more of a drama flick.

cast/acting

(2) Nothing special. It didn't even look like any of the actors were really trying.

(3) I think Stallone was excellent. But the characters didn't all mesh, which is probably the result of my dissapointment of this film's lack of excitement that the trailers promised.

good stuff

(3)There are sexual and violent scenes that may turn the crank of some people. The one cool thing that I liked about this movie is the unique scene transition; it's pretty nifty.

(3) Let's go beat up the boys that mess with you. But let's not show it all the time. Great "toughness..." I just expected more of it.

overall

(2) I got what I expected. A ho-hum movie.

(2) I was really excited about this movie...but it just failed to deliver that knockout punch. Wait for video.
