Too many clichéd characters to care about.

Rating: 5/10 (4 October 2010)

Nice to see an action film of the old school, but with so many characters it's hard to feel any emotional involvement and care about who lives and dies. As regards to the action scenes they've all been done before, admittedly that can't be helped but surely something fresh could have been added, especially considering the budget. Worth viewing once for the nostalgia and to see action stars trying to hold back the years, but personally it won't be added to my collection of films until it appears in the bargain bucket. Apparently a sequel has been announced, but this time please spend more money on the script and less on the big bangs,then maybe we'll care who lives or dies!
