Is this the best superhero movie ever made, hell no, is it the worst movie ever made, not by a long shot.
Stallone plays to his strengths here
Joking aside, it's a good movie and you won't want the 2 hours back as wasted time, I'd be a happy man if Stallone kept churning out films like this till he enters the pearly gates, yes he's old, but would I want to pick a fight with him god no.
Well done Stallone sir, as it says in this movie "I'm a fan"
Stallone plays to his strengths here
- no long bits of dialogue for him to chew over, check
- some good action scenes, check
- vulnerable young kid for him to save, check
- twist in the end you didn't see coming, unless you are that person at work who sees every twist before they even start watching it, check
- actor who makes you say to your family, "who is that guy?, what else was he in?" Check
- laughter track, when you realise it was the annoying kid from Hannah Montana, and the only way he has grown in 15 years is the addition of multi coloured cornrows, check
- reasonably good supporting cast, especially the main bad guy, and then when you realise who it is, and what he was in, makes you hate "the dans" for ruining the end of game of thrones, because that's how Euron Greyjoy should have been
