Bronson was great in it -- nm - Peglegpete Aug 24, 09:27
I did see it and found it disposable, but Donald Sutherland was good in it. I'll watch this one on Vudu, same as most of the B-movie stuff. -- nm - David Aug 24, 09:22
I agree with Roger More (if you know what I mean)I pretty much always like Statham -- nm - con_carne Aug 24, 08:53
yes - no. I'd rather do another Transporter -- nm - Epiphany Aug 24, 08:50 3
- didn't they get someone else to star in those? -- nm - Diva Aug 24, 08:53 2
  - yeah, Transporter Refueled starring Ed Skrein (Ajax from Deadpool). It wasn't very good. -- nm - decline Aug 24, 08:56
  - yes and I didn't bother -- nm - Epiphany Aug 24, 08:55
No, and I can't fathom why he'd do another one after his well-received Spy role -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 24, 08:46 11
- He really made a fool of himself in Spy. It was a good thing to do once. Once. -- nm - con_carne Aug 24, 09:13 2
  - Not even the fool aspect, but a decent buddy cop movie - Will Hunting Aug 24, 09:26 1
    - See, I have zero problems with anything you just said - con_carne Aug 24, 09:49
- This is his wheelhouse. "Low-budget action star" gives more opportunities and $$$ than "humourous supporting meathead" - Roger More Aug 24, 08:50 3
  - There can't be that much money in a movie that's likely to gross what, 15mil? - Will Hunting Aug 24, 09:12 2
    - International and digital video money. He'd earn more than playing second banana in Spy or the villain in F&F - Roger More Aug 24, 09:19 1
      - (I should add an IMO - I don't know what Statham gets paid for sure, but I expect he'd have more leverage in a Statham movie than in a supporting role - Roger More Aug 24, 09:21
- he's so fun in 'Spy'. -- nm - Diva Aug 24, 08:47 3
  - "I move like a *fucking* shadow." *crashes into waitress* -- nm - Shaun Aug 24, 09:33 2
    - "He looks like he's from the cast of Newsies." -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 24, 09:34 1
      - "zzz...Bosoms...zzz. Shut up, you know you loved it." -- nm - Diva Aug 24, 09:52
No, but I appreciate the pool scene in the trailer. -- nm - Spawn Aug 24, 08:45
No, but I can always give Jason Statham a chance, and at least the locations are interesting. -- nm - Roger More Aug 24, 08:45 4
- will you pay 2 see it in a theatre? -- nm - Diva Aug 24, 08:58 3
  - Oh no. I may check it out on DVD (but I haven't seen the Mechanic yet so...) -- nm - Roger More Aug 24, 09:02 2
    - I imagine it would be tough to grasp without seeing the first one (notatall). :) -- nm - Diva Aug 24, 09:03 1
      - I dunno, watching Crank 2 before watching Crank was a mistake! - Roger More Aug 24, 09:06
the Christian Bale one? that's an odd choice for a sequel -- nm - shaolin fantastic Aug 24, 08:44 2
- yes pixie, that one. -- nm - Diva Aug 24, 08:46 1
  - he better stop eating that food again -- nm - shaolin fantastic Aug 24, 08:54
Jason Statham - decline Aug 24, 08:43 5
- (and I did see the first one) -- nm - decline Aug 24, 08:47 4
  - did you go to the theatre and pay cash. money. for the first one? -- nm - Diva Aug 24, 08:47 3
    - I just keep reminding myself - movies go to an August release schedule to die -- nm - Epiphany Aug 24, 08:55
    - of course not. - decline Aug 24, 08:48 1
      - ahh...so this is something you deal with in the privacy of your own home. i get it. :) -- nm - Diva Aug 24, 08:49
