A priest, a fire captain and three clowns walk into a state fair. Sounds like the beginning of joke. But it’s really the start of a heist, wherein the five hired men head to the Ohio State Fair to stake their claim on a million dollars in cash. After a successful steal, the priest (who, [...]

Before work started on FAST AND FURIOUS 6, it was rumored that Jason Statham would be joining the mix of buff action heroes. But something went askew and supposedly, Jason Statham turned the role down and life moved on. Well, either Jason Statham realized he can’t carry his own movie or Universal ponied up some [...]

It seems that Jason Statham has a movie coming out every six months, and even though they aren’t always great films, they are usually somewhat fun films. That brings us to PARKER, which has Jason Statham playing the title character who is a thief who lives by a personal code of ethics, “Don’t steal from [...]

Jason Statham is the current and undisputed king of the short-title action flick. Whether people knew it or not back in 2002, the proverbial torch that lights the gasoline trail which causes the massive highway explosion was passed from the very capable hands of Seagal and feet of Van Damme to the raspy, yet somehow [...]

More set photos have been released for the upcoming Justin Lin film FAST AND FURIOUS 6 and though there’s only one promotional-like shot of Dwayne Johnson, Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Jordana Brewster and some other lady who I can’t identify, we do get to see some more of the vehicles from the film. Now, car [...]

Dwayne Johnson has been tweeting photos from the set of FAST AND FURIOUS 6 of himself and co-stars off and on for a couple of months now, but today we’re getting a first official look of Justin Lin’s third film. Today we’re not only getting a look at Dwayne Johnson, but we’re also getting a [...]

Dwayne Johnson must be more than a little addicted to the social media outlet Twitter as he’s tweeted yet another photo of himself on the set of his upcoming film FAST AND FURIOUS 6. It’s tough to tell what kind of story this photo is telling, but thanks to Dwayne Johnson’s 140 characters, we have [...]

A lot of fans of Chuck Norris were excited to see him back on the big screen this past weekend for THE EXPENDABLES 2, but don’t look for him in the next film because he won’t be reprising his role. In a statement Chuck Norris said about his return for the third film, he said, [...]

Sometimes Twitter is a wonderful, wonderful thing, especially when celebrities like to take self-promoting photos of themselves on the set of their current film. Such is the case today when Dwayne Johnson tweeted a photo of him and co-star Gina Carano (HAYWIRE), whom he refers to as his “partner in ass kickins (and fun)”, on [...]

Can we say overconfident much? THE EXPENDABLES 2 hasn’t even hit theaters yet (it opens this weekend on August 17th), but producer Avi Lerner is apparently convinced that the film will rake in the big bucks, so why not start looking for stars for the next film? According to Lerner, he’s already got Nicolas Cage [...]

The endless train of promotional photos, posters and trailers continues today as we get a new poster featuring our villain Jean Claude Van Damme, a couple new shots of Chuck Norris as well as Liam Hemsworth, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jason Statham and Dolph Lundgren.

Another clip from THE EXPENDABLES 2 has been released and though it’s short and sweet, it does give us an idea of what’s in store in the next film. It’s too bad we aren’t getting some more footage of our new Expendable recruits like Jean-Claude Van Damme, Chuck Norris, Chris Hemsworth (to be fair we [...]

Though I love watching Jason Statham movies when I need an action fix, I’m starting to question his judgment in role choices. For every blockbuster like THE EXPENDABLES or THE EXPENDABLES 2, he has at least half a dozen films that are so average they can barely be called B-movies and may almost venture in [...]

Sure, THE EXPENDABLES completely relies on the nostalgia of those of us in our 30′s and 40′s that long for the days of 80′s action movies, but the fact remains that we just can’t turn away. I didn’t really like the first one, but I’m still looking forward to THE EXPENDABLES 2. Of the new [...]

The new trailer for THE EXPENDABLES 2 has come out and although I hate to admit it, it looks pretty fun. The first film left me feeling a little cheated, but since I do love a good action film I’m willing to give this one a shot. However, if Sylvester Stallone doesn’t come through with [...]

When you think of the biggest action stars of the past 30 years, who comes to mind? For me, the list has to include Sylvester Stallone, Jet Li, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Dolph Lundgren, and more recently Jason Statham (yes, I enjoyed the original TRANSPORTER more than is considered socially acceptable). Few actors have achieved [...]

This time, the studio is looking to bring in Mr. [...]

Developing likeable characters is a key component sorely lacking in a lot of movies recently. Of course it’s important in dramas and comedies but it is also important in action films. Action cannot be the star of a successful film if no one cares about the characters. Thankfully, THE MECHANIC succeeds in delivering a fun [...]
