looks like one of those old-skool 80's action flicks we all grew up on...

Could be cool, could be bad. Main bad guy looks interesting. Dont know the lead but he looks comfortable in an actionrole...

This is a film co-produced by the WWE and the hero is a wrestler called John Cena, so it's kinda like The Rock trying to break through into action films.
What this film lacks, looking at the trailer anyway, is the humour that The Rock brought to his films. Hopefully Robert Patrick will be able to provide it if Cena can't, but who knows...

Like you say, it could be good, it could be bad. If it gets the cheese factor right, then it should be OK

Cena sucks, at least in the acting department (like that really matters in big dumb action flick). His performances during "soap opera" cutscenes of WWE Smackdown Part 17 were really bad (my friend has the game).

I'm not into "pro" wrestling either, but I've played my friend's PS2 while at his house.

Cena is a white guy who likes to pretend to be negro, a wigger or chav in other words.

Aw ic ic... that's just sad...
Hopefully he'll act 'normal' in this film though. Maybe the whole wigga thing is play-acting on his side?
