They Got This

Early 2013 is shaping up nicely for action movies with the vets from the 80s.  In January Arnold is back from politics and cameos and leads the way in The Last Stand.  This a good looking movie for Arnold to get his action groove back on.


On February 1 Sly is back in Bullet to the Head as an assassin who teams up with a cop to take down an enemy they have in common.  This movie is getting some positive buzz after getting pushed back from its April 2012 release.  Director Walter Hill (48 Hours, The Long Riders) makes his long waited return to action movies finally.


And on Valentines Day Bruce Wills returns as detective John McClain in It's a Good Day to Die Hard or Die Hard 5 as I call it around my house.  McClain partners with his son in Russia to stop a nuclear  weapons heist.  Just what every father and son should do.  Now, how do I convince the wife to see this on Valentines?



I love these guys and I am glad they are still making action movies.  I fear the future of the action star after these guys have to hang it up.  On a making of feature on the Expendables while Sly was working on casting he mentioned that all these guys trying out for the movie were always looking in the mirror and were more worried about their hair more then learning how to take a punch.  Now that is scary.
