Yeah, couldn't they blow up some buildings or something?

Seriously, though, I've been desensitized to action movies. If they're throwbacks to the old style, then they're cliched (like Jack Reacher) or parody (like the Expendables). If it's modern, it's just not "big" enough. And then if it tries to be cerebral, then it's just boring.
