Vern, you should do a review for Lock-Up, the OTHER Stallone Escapes from Prison in 89 flick. This is my favorite non-Rocky, non-Rambo Stallone movie ever.

If I remember correctly they also made him use every Britishy-Aussie expression in the book in like one line of dialgoue. Something like "You sodding teacupless wanking shagging bloody gits! Crikey! Bloody fucking hell, cricketpaddlequeensconesthatsnotaknifethatsaknifedudleymoore!" And the Beavis and Butt-Head style commentary Tango and Cahs provide to their own trial is pretty fucking great too. Shit, I need to watch this again. Good times.

I obviously wasn't striving for excellence very much on that review. But I'm glad you guys are here to bring up those important details when I drop the ball.

I love when the bad guy explains that he is going to frame Tango and Cash by taking two mice which he names Tango and Cash and putting them in a maze. It's even more pointless than when Goldfinger showed everybody a huge photograph of Fort Knox, announced that he was going to rob Fort Knox, then had a model of Fort Know emerge from the ground, then used neither the photograph or model to explain anything any better. Later, when Tango and Cash are storming his fortress, the baddie starts licking the mice with erotic glee. That's filmmaking. This movie is great.

I'd be curious to know your opinion Vern, the film is pretty effin weird. On the commentary the director keeps trying to defend the film with "well yeah it's all a parody of those big action films, so the one liners are meant to be silly". But that doesn't really excuse the film when it's trying to be funny and falls falt (which is often). The tone is all over the place as well. I mean "should I rape them?" where the hell did that line come from? Not seen it but the tone sounds almost similar to Hudson Hawk.

Hey Vern, how about you finally brave up and review RED DAWN? I'm sure that pissed you off real good, but considering how the upcoming remake actually found a way to be even more fantasy than John Milius' original*....Wolverines! Can't wait for you to bring up how the Saddam Hussein capture Army squad was named after that movie, despite the fucking thick irony of U.S. being the Russians, and those friggin Insurgents the damn kids. *=Which I like. Sure some cheesy action filmatics and most of kids' cast was teenie bopper opportunistic, The Swayze was f'n good. Speaking of The Swayze…

It's dumb but it knows it, and it works on the levels that it needs to work on - there's great chemistry between the two leads. But British accent? That's Australian or I'm a dingo.
