Simon 'treated' me to a viewing of the Kurt Russell action flick Soldier , directed by Paul Anderson director of Event Horizon, Mortal Kombat and (let me add this to my BB queue right now) Deathrace. It was basically a nice 95 minute collection of action, cheese and more action.. Simon confessed that it was 4 years since he saw this movie and ' it wasnt as good as he remembered' (shades of Hitman, which I bought because I thought it was great - er, it wasnt.. LOL). I think my favourite scene was the end - a cross between Lethal Weapon 1 and, if I recall correctly, Nowhere to Run (JCVD) - a wet, bloody brawl to the death, with the trademark neck breaker by our hero 'Todd'.
I was hoping for something as good as Escape from New York, hell even something as good as Tango and Cash would have been acceptable. I am afraid it ended up with a 3/10 on the DT scale. Good job I have transporter 3 to watch later this weekend - that could be a step up from Soldier, or maybe not...
