Review of Bullet to the Head (2012) by Spiders — 25 Oct 2014

A disastrously pointless excuse for a movie. Why does Sylvester Stallone star in a movie in his sixties with a shirt off! Seriously he's old and there's nothing to show! Stallone plays Jimmy Bobo, a fearless assassin who kills his targets and in this movie we are totally unaware if he's working on his own demands or if he's a contracted killer with a boss. He poses another action flick with not much excitement to promise. The only decent actor is Sung Kang, who plays a detective called Taylor Kwon: a cop who associates with Bobo as they attempt to track down and take out the killer, played by Jason Momoa. Their relationship in this particular case is hard to bear and they might as well have killed each other to save the bother of working together. Bobo also has a daughter who appears in bits of the movie and she's a tattooist who mostly tattoos herself and makes her look ridiculous.

Director Walter Hill's 1987 action flick, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, which was Red Heat was quite boring as well as is Bullet to the Head, but Red Heat had Arnie in it and he's more entertaining and fabulous to watch! Bullet to the Head is just a major let down and hopefully there's no sequel on the way any time soon.
