Film Of The Week: ESCAPE PLAN (2013)

SYNOPSIS: One of the world’s foremost authorities on structural security agrees to take on one last job: breaking out of an ultra-secret, high-tech facility called “The Tomb.” Deceived and wrongly imprisoned, Ray Breslin (Sylvester Stallone) must recruit fellow inmate Emil Rottmayer (Arnold Schwarzenegger) to help devise a daring, nearly impossible plan to escape from the most protected and fortified prison ever built. ESCAPE PLAN is the first pairing of action legends Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger in leading roles, and co-stars Jim Caviezel, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, Vinnie Jones, Vincent D’Onofrio and Amy Ryan. REVIEW: I was surprised to see how fresh and full of action Escape Plan was when I saw it. I guess it was mainly because I had seen so many Stallone and Schwarzenegger movies my whole life that just when I think they’ve reached their limit, they take themselves a few extra steps of awesome further.

Headlines continue to drive internet traffic for action fans looking to keep up with the latest on what is happening with the upcoming filming of The Expendables 3 starting next week in Bulgaria.

I know part of my audience enjoys the explosions, but to be honest, I’m a bit bored of it now.” He also adds, “I work in all sorts of films, but the action movies are the ones that generate the most revenue. I like to earn lots of money from those, but I […]

Actor Michael B. Jordan has been the talk of the town since the highly underrated release of the 2012 found-footage sci-fi teen superhero drama, Chronicle. Highly regarded for his amazing on-screen presence in TV and film, Jordan‘s name has been tossed through the superhero movie hemisphere from rumors of a role as Johnny Storm in the upcoming reboot of Fantastic Four, to the somewhat-serious mention of a romantic pairing with Spider-Man as a new take on the character, M.J.. Surely enough, it is a bright and bold sign that Jordan‘s career has taken off in solid fashion, especially while off the heels of a stellar performance from the same actor/director duo for their multi-festival award winning film, Fruitvale Station, featuring Jordan‘s biographical portrayal of tragic events that led to the tragic police shooting of unarmed victim, Oscar Grant, back in 2009. Today’s reporting from Deadline states that the actor is […]
