Escape Plan (2013)


Stallone and Arnie are reunited...again, but sadly like 'The Expendables 2' it's another tired 80's style action movie. Stallone plays Ray Breslin, a man hired to test the security in prisons by escaping from them, a lob comes up with a big payout, but he is deceived and ends up and wrongly imprisoned by the private company running the prison.

Stallone mumbles his way through another film, as he did in 'Bullet To The Head' with zero charisma, Vinnie Jones turns up looking like a 21st Century Nazi, the whole thing is as brain dead as the inmates imprisoned in the penitentiary, and crashes to a finale with a machine gun fight and a big explosion, the only saving grace being Arnie who can still cut it with his larger than life screen presence.
