This is a great movie if you hit the mute button during the parts where there is some dialogue.
All of the big names in Macho Film are here. From Arnold Schwarzenegger to Sylvester Stallone and everyone in between.
The plot is basically an excuse to have knife fights and explosions.
The hard part with this type of movie is to not make every chase scene or fight look like every other chase scene and fight in every other "Shoot-em-up" movie. I think they pulled it off here. One thing that was notable was the huge amount of knife fighting.
As far as shooting goes, one of the guys has this shotgun that shoots explosive rounds at the rate of 200 per minute. There is a great scene of him blowing up a bunch of guys as he walks forward and the scramble to get out of the way.
Best line is when Sylvester is fighting one of the Pro Wrestling type guys and was losing. He shows back up with his friends and they ask where he was and he says, "I was getting my ass kicked." It was great because its rare when he doesn't win.
I give this one star for plot; 3 and a half stars for action.
