Arnold is still super fit, but MAN the amount of bad onliners!! It just doesnt stop... Not to speak of all the cliche's.

Sabotage might best be summed up as a Schwarzenegger classic highlighting all the nuances that only Schwarzenegger film can. Corny, daft and borderline buffoonery are all adapt words for this profiterole of nonsense.The movie poster too is fine illustration of just how absurd the movie actually is; displaying a movie that probably best belongs in the 80's.If you watch the film with low expectations then it's actually pretty good and that's down to the whodunit style plot the premise of the film sits on, a premise that remains until its climatic reveal toward the end.The film also benefits from the brutality one rarely sees in a Schwarzenegger film, it's unexpected and brings a sense of foreboding and realism to the story.Unfortunately, the pinnacle that ruins any willingness in trying to accept the movie is the ridiculous car chase at the end. From that moment on, the viewer is left finishing the film simply because it's only a few minutes awayDirected by David Ayer, one must wonder what was going through his mind when he thought this is what Hollywood needed...So with all said and done, it's a daft movie that isn't dreadful but simply okay.

I would have never gone to watch it in a theatre if not for Josh Holloway. From whatever I've seen till now, I firmly believe that he has more acting prowess than all the rest of the 9 members of his team combined. But unfortunately, he is a TV star and not a bankable name in movie world. I wish better movies and meatier roles for him. Anyways, as far as the movie is concerned, its a boring movie. Thats all i can say. Had to sit through it 'cause i had paid for it.

I heard about this film a fair bit while it was out in cinemas, mainly because of the leading actor, I didn't know anything about the plot, so, despite slightly low ratings, I was up for it, directed by David Ayer (Training Day, Fury, Suicide Squad). Basically an elite DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) team, led by John 'Breacher' Wharton (Arnold Schwarzenegger), raid a drug cartel, during which they find $10 million in cash, they take it all and hide it in the plumbing. When they return later for the cash, it is missing, and the team are under investigation until the money is found, the investigation is lifted after a couple of months, following no evidence. The team are eventually brought back together to train, and celebrate the reunion with a night in a club, but then one by one members are being murdered. The first killed member wakes up in his RV, on train tracks, and hit by an oncoming train, the second killed member is found nailed to the ceiling, the third killed member is gunned down in his remote cabin. Investigating the murders is Detective Caroline Brentwood (The Sixth Sense's Olivia Williams) from the City of Atlanta, with Breach, who is haunted by the memory of his family murdered, they work together to find who is responsible, the obvious connection is the missing millions. The murderer responsible for the brutal killings is not so obvious, following a high speed chase they get what they deserve, it is revealed that Breach in fact kept all the mom. Breach uses it to get a lead to those responsible for killing his family, he murders the man and all his henchmen in a large bloody shootout, after which he is badly injured, and simply sits down to smoke a cigar. Also starring Sam Worthington as James 'Monster' Murray, Mireille Enos as Lizzy Murray, Terrence Howard as Julius 'Sugar' Edmonds, Joe Manganiello as Joe 'Grinder' Phillips, Harold Perrineau as Investigator Darius Jackson, Martin Donovan as Floyd Demel, Max Martini as Tom 'Pyro' Roberts, Josh Holloway as Eddie 'Neck' Jordan, Troy Garity as Agent Spolcheck and Kevin Vance as Bryce 'Tripod' McNeely. Schwarzenegger is always good at being tough, all the supporting cast members are stereotypes, but they do fine, the story is just about interesting to follow, I agree with critics it more about the shock factor, but that is exactly what kept me watching, all the grisly deaths, each more gory than the last, and the sequences with speedy chases and guns blazing are exciting, so overall it was a reasonable crime action thriller. Worth watching!
