...the movie is called Assassins and Stallone doesn't realise that Banderos is behind him!! Oh dear, this could have been a shorter film than what was expected. Any way I digress, sit comfortably, relax and on with the review…. This film was released twelve years ago; I was pleasantly surprised when I saw this at the Cinema that this was a Richard Donner film. This man has directed Superman, 4 Lethal Weapon films, and shows no signs of slowing down. ...
...collection of actors, Stallone playing Robert Rath, the professional assassin on the verge of retirement and wanting to do one more job. Stallone plays the role very well and looks the part completely. When watching the film you really do believe him in the role as someone who is tired and feels he has reached the end of his usefulness and wants to move on. The female lead in the film is the ever reliable Julianne Moore who plays Electra. She went ... Read review

Unfortunately, the US government don't seem inclined to do anything to hunt The Wolf down and so Brewer decides to seek his own revenge for the death of his family. This leads him to Colombia, where he inadvertently saves the life of a young woman and her son and becomes attached to them. But then he discovers ...
...of plot or characterisation. Slipping Collateral Damage into the DVD player, I therefore had a very good idea of what to expect from this film. And to a certain extent, it doesn't disappoint. If you want action, that's exactly what you'll get. It's just a shame that someone hadn't gone to a little more trouble over the plot... I've read a number of reviews that point out that Arnie's age is not on his side here. It is certainly true that he is not ... Read review
