Pounder · 09-10-2013, 06:14 PM

a former Drug Enforcement Administration agent Phil Broker who is trying to leave his violent life behind him. He moves with his daughter to small-town Louisiana, where he butts heads with a crime faction including a former biker chick (Winona Ryder) and the local crime leader, Gator (Franco).” Also starring Kate Bosworth and Frank Grillo.

This could be good, Screenplay by Sylvester Stallone and also produced by him too.

I remember Statham talking about this a while back about Sly casting him in the lead role and it was an honour for him to accept.

I was wondering if this was still opening on Thanksgiving or if it would pushed back since Sabotage got moved to April.

Hopefully we get a trailer this week. Could be attached to "The Family" since it would appeal to the same demographic.

When was Sabotage moved to April?

jamesdevil · 09-10-2013, 06:36 PM

When I think America, I definitely think of Jason Statham.

A few days ago. HSX listed the delay (Box Office Mojo only seems to update when they want to).

Alright, thanks for the info!

KilloWertz · 09-11-2013, 01:24 PM

Definitely interested.

It will also be interesting to see James Franco as the bad guy (besides Spider-Man).

Darn, I thought this was based off of the video game. Nope, just another Statham movie with Statham doing Statham stuff.

cinemaphile · 09-12-2013, 07:02 PM

looks decent. I pretty much enjoy all of Statham's movies. It's nice to see Winona Ryder working again, even if it's just small roles.

Franco's southern accent could use some work

olivasauce · 09-12-2013, 08:49 PM

Hmmm. Looks decent. Commando and Taken like.

SwaggerJagger · 09-13-2013, 12:56 AM

this looks like great, i'll be watching this!

Jason Statham is Jason Statham in a Jason Statham movie. I don't know what it is with this guy but ... every single thing he does is the same. He looks the same, he acts the same, he speaks the same, he just being Jason Statham time after time. A lot of other "action heroes" have done something else, even if it was only one time. So far, Statham didn't. I wonder if Statham will do something out of his box in the future, I sure would like to see that ... lost hope though.

Lehnhart · 10-19-2013, 01:40 AM

I like most of Statham's stuff. Will definitely try to watch this.

RyanPom · 10-19-2013, 01:43 AM

Another actor I don't get, aside from Expendables, just plain bland in everything else.
