The Marine and other fun things

So this weekend I saw Man of the Year and the Marine. Man of the Year was funny but now that I think of it I can't even remember it, so if you're looking for a pretty funny (assumingly) movie but not a life-changer, go see it. On the other hand there's The Marine. As you can tell by the posters and the metal-rock included on the commercials, this movie is Bad Ass (capitalized because it is that intense). By bad ass I mean completely ridiculous from its WWE Films intro to its exploding end. Before I even go further, you might want to consider looking around your house for those things you might own that might be flammable. Once located, then proceed to separate any flammable objects that might be too close to another flammable objects. Why, you might ask? Because if The Marine is any indication, if you put one propane tank and one bottle of Vaseline next to eachother you've got North Korea on your hands if someone by chance is made of sparks or have metal teeth and love to talk. In this movie, rather than provide transitions between two locations, once enough dialogue has been vomited all over the ground of one spot, they'll blow the sh*t to kingdom come (with the Marine always making a dive out of a window or nearby opening). You like those fireworks they have when WWE wrestlers enter the ring? (I assume they still do that) Well this movie takes all the leftovers and makes sure that they waste as much gasoline as possible (while it's cheap). It's an idiotic movie with some pretty surprisingly funny humor (Terminator 2 reference? Rape by hillbillies reference? Oh yeah.), but I say save it for a night with pizza and nothing else to do. Oh and whichever friend of your's might be recommending that you go see The Grudge 2, be sure to never do anything for them again. Over and out.
