Who wouldn't want to see a movie with the tagline:
"The leader of a drug cartel busts out of a courthouse and speeds to the Mexican
border, where the only thing in his path is a sheriff and his inexperienced
staff. " and "Retirement is for sissies"
The film in question is none other than The Last Stand by Korean director Jea-Woon Kim of one of my all-time favorite movies- I Saw The Devil http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1588170/
Unfortunately, neither the tagline nor the mash-up of random actors simply doesn't get me excited...
Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Forrest Whitaker (whom I'm a fan of), Genesis Rodriguez, Peter Stormare, Johny Knoxville, Luis Guzman.
They should have thrown in Sir Ben Kingsley to really throw off viewers
They are calling this a Neo Western,
My guess is the term Neo Western is coined when you make a film with a bunch of Mexican actors, American actors and throw in a random Austrian ex-bodybuilder.
For the sake of everyone involved in this movie, I am hoping that its somewhat comedic in nature.
I fear that it may actually take itself seriously.
