Try Harder - Bruce Willis Wannabe

Statham would effortlessly whoop Bruce Willis' ass sitting down. True......

And in 20 years there will be some stupid kid saying Jason Stathom is trash and not as good as *insert next action star here*.

Its not BWillis' fault hes getting on in years.

"The Willis of the Die Hard Trilogy"

i really liked your post....the word in red is very intelligently chosen...90s are long gone and i have to see movies like DH, the rock, conair etc to refresh my memory of really really badass action movies ! why don't they make such movies now !

Why couldn't you put the bunny back in the box?

LOL @ Sexamental In your own words "Willis was good", but the problem is Statham never has been good, great or even okie, and what Statham does is far from "hard-core" or "gritty".

Statham plays himself in everything he is in, he always has and always will he has no clue how to act, his "action" and martial arts are always sub-par and he has stolen his stern silent type look persona from other actors such as Bruce Willis, you might not like it, but thats the truth fanboi-Sexamental.

P.S. I have no favour for either actor, but to see some fanboi rant about one actor that is a complete shadow of a previous actor that did the same things but better needed some attention.

:( I liked Red.
But.......I have to agree Jason is a great actor and Bruce WAS. He's so famous he doesn't have to act anymore. He just shows up......Like Sean Connery.
*hiss* I just *beep* myself over with that comment. lol

Did you ever see The Mechanic re-make? obviously not.. since there is no relationship with that movie compared to Snatch, Lock Stock, or even this movie. With that perspective, you might as well say Brad Pitt plays the same character in Moneyball as he did in Snatch. get a clue.

Agreed. Only Statham action movie I would watch again besides Transporter 1. I actually took my wife to see this film. I was worried because Statham movies are usually so ridiculous especially Transporter 2,3, Crank, etc. But she really liked it and found it entertaining. Having the little girl in the film made the emotional scenes in this film more plausible. I loved the camera work with the mirrors, especially the car scenes.

Willis' physical acting was good in Die Hard 1 and 2. After that it died down. That same kind of physical action intensity is always seen by Stallone even in his latest Rambo. You need more physical intensity during gunplay if you're not displaying any martial arts in your scenes.

Statham is always intense in his action scenes. That's one thing that I can't complain about.

"One of the major differences between Willis and Statham is that Statham is a martial artist and can hold his own in the heavy action sequences."
enough said! I feel so much better after reading this... Thank you :)
