The Expendables
Recently watched this movie from 2010 again. It was a bit of an ironical movie project from Stallone, bringing together action movie heroes from the past: The Expendables. In the movie the expendables are a group of mercenaries that get hired by the CIA to take out another CIA operative gone rogue as a drug…

Under Siege
After having watched Half Past Dead I decided to also watch Under Siege again, probably the best Steven Seagal movie. The whole movie takes place on a battleship that is overtaken by a group mercinaries. The crew is locked up while the mercenaries plan to remove all the warheads from the ship. Only 1 crew…

Half Past Dead
After watching 2 Chuck Norris movies I decided it was turn to another ‘icon’ in the genre: Steven Seagal. Seagal is an atypical action movie star because he is an aikidoka and so doesn’t kick and punch like a typical karate practitioner.

A Good Day to Die Hard
A Good Day to Die Hard is the last movie in the franchise so far. It came out in 2013 and based on the critics it is a good thing this series has come to an end. It suffers mainly from a lack of a good story and novelty. I had almost written a credible…

Sci-Fi Crime Thriller: Déjà Vu
I recently watched this movie from 2006 starring Denzel Washington, Val Kilmer, Paula Patton and Jim Caviezel again. The movie is a mix of the crime and science fiction genres. The movie starts with a terrorist bombing of a ferry and follows the investigation of ATF agent Doug Carlin, played by Denzel Washington. He is…
