An average movie

Already 10 years ago, Sylvester Stallone made a surprising come-back with 'Rocky Balboa' (seriously,  who would have thought that a decent movie would come out from such a dead franchise?). Then, 2 years later, he did the same trick with 'Rambo' which was also quite successful but he seemed to be running out of cool characters to recycle. So, he came out with this concept which would be, at the same time, something new but also something really nostalgic as well. I mean, you have to admit it, it was really smart and the whole thing definitely had some potential. Unfortunately, it's such a pity that the end-result was not so great after all. First of all, even though they didn't need to bring a very fancy story, the plot was barely decent but, at least, there were some pretty cool action scenes. Above all, I think the most disappointing thing were the dialogues. Seriously,  except for a few decent one-liners, they were usually rather lame. Imagine if Quentin Tarantino would have written those dialogues... Well, that would have been really interesting! Eventually, I think the whole thing is rather overrated but still, for an action flick, it was fairly entertaining and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you are a fan of the genre.
