Review of The Marine (2006) by Patrick E — 28 Oct 2009
The Marine is an utterly ridiculous over-the-top actioner very much in the vein of classic 80's films like Commando. John Triton (WWE Star John Cena) is a one man army who gets thrown out of the army for not following protocol.
While working as a security guard a group of bank robbers take his wife hostage. Big mistake as Triton goes out to kill every one of them. The acting is awful, the dialogue super cheesy and the action totally unbelievable but it's very entertaining.
There is some great stunt scenes, plenty of explosions and violence punctuated by witty one-liners. pure leave your brain at the door entertainment. Just don't expect anything brillianta and you will have a good time.
