James Gunn is a loon
Prefer this to the David Ayer version. James Gunn just has a much better eye for comic book films in my opinion.

This version has much better character development, and the action is much more coherent.

This is a very good enjoyable , but simple film, even for a action film the plot couldn't be more straight forward. Yes this is far more violent, bloody and gory than the previous three. Done very realistically as well similar to the scenes on the beach in saving private ryan. A brutal bloody film and entertaining as a modern day action film. Despite his years Stallone's character is believable in this and he doesn't over do any stunts, action unlike some of the other Rambo films. Well worth seeing if you have seen the others or not.

Surprising
I put this one off for a long time because I heard it wasn't very good. I'm glad I finally watched it. The effects were pretty cool and the acting was on par with most action movies. The story was "fantastical" like any sci-fi movie should be- not really believable but fun to watch. It played out well and had plenty of great action sequences. The monsters were pretty cool too. This eas like "Halo" meets "Godzilla". It's even "kid friendly".If you love sci-fi action adventures(and haven't seen it already) this one is worth a watch!

It doesn't get much better than The Raid "Redemption" and its sequel, The Raid 2 in terms of non-stop action, but still an interesting plot. You will be glued to your seat from the word go as you not only try and figure out where the story is going, but also enjoy the extremely impressive, realistic choreography. Also, given the indoor, stifling sets, it makes the action that much better.

It kind of reminded me of the new "Dredd" film with Karl Urban in plot, but that is not a complaint.


Highly recommended for action film fans.

A film with all the main action stars of the 80's, 90's and 00's!! Pity Bruce Willis and Arnold didn't have bigger roles than just cameos. It is high octane stuff, with some great fights, stunts, explosions, good chase scene and one loud bad ass gun!!! Yes the story is simple and weak, just like all the old action films. It's kinda like a mix of Commando with the Magnificent seven! If you like pure action you will love it, if you don't you won't! Great cast though and rumours of a sequel already!

Great revenge action film
This is a very good revenge action film from the director of Saw, spot the Jigsaw face! The story as with a lot of these films is a bit over the top. Kevin Bacon starts as a calm mild mannered white collar worker who suddenly changes into a raw hate filled father after the death of his son. Pretty handy with a range of guns all of a sudden as well. Apart from that the film is great and has plenty of decent action scenes and some great performances from the two lead characters.
