Promised & Delivered.

Rating: 9/10 (20 July 2015)

The story (to a certain extent) is secondary to the action in this film, due to it essentially being one long action sequence (must of cost a fortune). Nevertheless, they pulled (tugged) it off. It's a visual spectacle that keeps you hooked in. It's a cracking watch.
The actors play their respective parts & there's not much more to say because it isn't about in-depth storytelling, it's about the shiny-shiny things. So because nobody actually reads these reviews & only looks at the scores, here's a story about a bunny rabbit:
Floppity, The Rotten Rabbit.
Floppity & Flappity were rabbit twins. They would play all day & sleep all night. They liked to play in Mr Cheek's garden because the large rhubarb & cabbage patch made for excellent hiding. They would take turns to hide & have such fun trying to outwit one-another.
Nevertheless, hide & seek wasn't the only reason they liked to play in Mr Cheek's garden, as the fruit & vegetables Mr Cheek grew were exceedingly yummy. However, Mr Cheek wasn't best pleased to discover Floppity & Flappity had been gnawing on his fruit & veg. In fact he got very angry and laid snares around the garden to entrap Floppity & Flappity.
Now children, snares are string and stake devices designed to capture a bunny rabbit by it's neck or foot. The more the bunny-rabbit struggles, the tighter the snare grips. This results in a lack of blood to the appendage caught in said device. For example: If the snare is around the bunny-rabbit's neck the bunny rabbit will suffocate or on occasion break its neck in the panic which ensues entrapment.
One day Floppity & Flappity got into an argument whilst playing in Mr Cheek's garden. Flappity was unhappy that Floppity was mocking his name, for Flappity wasn't actually Flappity's real name, it was Brian. Brian had gained the name Flappity from Floppity for displaying a nervous disposition:
"You're always flapping, Flappity." Floppity said sneeringly.
"No I'm not, er, I just like to think things through, which is hard to do when you keep pressurising me." Replied Brian.
"Flappity (Floppity sneered once more) just pick a bloody cabbage leaf & eat it! Old man Cheek will be along in a second with his shotgun, remember what happened to mother".
At this Flappity snapped.
"Don't you! Don't you ever talk about mother again! It was you who made her go back into the garden to retrieve the cabbage leaf that you dropped!
Floppity looked at his irate twin & with the demeanor of a clergyman giving Sunday prayers, he methodically replied, "Calm-down Flappity old chum, stop flapping."
"Cock!" Flappity cracked-back.
"Qué pasa" Floppity replied.
BANG! As buck-shot flew through the emerald-lit undergrowth of cabbage utopia, so did Floppity & Flappity. Like two grey wigs shot from a cannon they sped to the outskirts of the garden in an instinctive lust for life. Flappity got to the hole in Mr Cheek's garden fence first, but instead of darting through to safety, he stopped & slid a loose fence-post across the exit, into which Floppity charged.
Dazed, Floppity got to his feet, "let me through brother, quick!"
"What's my name?" Greeted Floppity's call for help.
Floppity looked around in a panic, then screamed, "There's no time for this, let me through now Flappity."
"What's my name?" Came once more from behind the fence.
"Bri....". Floppity's response was cut short.
Before Floppity could finish the name that Flappity so longed to hear, another shot pumped from Mr Cheek's gun, not only peppering Floppity with holes, but Flappity too through the fence. As the buck-shot ridden rabbits lay grasping at the final cabbage-leaves of life, Floppity could hear Flappity faintly murmur through the fence, "dick...head".
