Review of The Condemned (2007) by Mario B — 04 Apr 2009
A badass version of Battle Royale. I don't know how to say this but, yes: I buy it. I drink this milkshake, I drink it all.
This is, in fact, an exciting, dumb, fast-paced, intoxicating action flick with lots of fights and explosions, and I like it.
Of course, I hated when they tried to be all socially aware and tried to shove down our throats some weird, anti-reality message but as long as they remained in the safe, warm place called action-flick-with-wrestlers, it was all good. And it's always a pleasure to see (and hear) Rick Hoffman talk as fast as he can. He's simply hilarious.
I don't know who the hell is this Steve Austin, but I buy him as an action star. The Rock he ain't.
