Description

"Demolition Man" is a 1993 science fiction action film directed by Marco Brambilla, starring Sylvester Stallone, Wesley Snipes, and Sandra Bullock. The movie is set in a futuristic version of Los Angeles in 2032, where crime has been virtually eliminated, and the police force relies on pacifism and rehabilitation instead of violence. However, when a dangerous criminal named Simon Phoenix escapes from his prison and wreaks havoc on the city, the only cop who can stop him is John Spartan, a legendary cop who has been cryogenically frozen for over 30 years.

Stallone plays John Spartan, a tough cop from the past who finds himself in a completely different world when he is thawed out of his cryogenic prison. Snipes plays Simon Phoenix, a violent and unpredictable criminal who is hellbent on causing chaos in the seemingly perfect society of the future. The movie also features Bullock as Lenina Huxley, a police officer who helps Spartan navigate the new world and stop Phoenix.

"Demolition Man" received mixed reviews upon its release, with some critics praising the movie's satirical take on futuristic society and Stallone and Snipes' performances. However, others criticized the film's plot and character development. Despite this, the movie has gained a cult following over the years, with many fans appreciating its over-the-top action sequences and tongue-in-cheek humor. It remains a beloved entry in Stallone's filmography and a memorable addition to the sci-fi action genre.

The Mechanic

The Mechanic

Action & Adventure

Jason Statham stars as Arthur Bishop, "mechanic" supreme. Of course, "mechanic" is bad-guy talk for the professional assassin who comes to fix your problem and generally tune-up your operation by striking terror into the hearts of your bad-guy rivals. The Mechanic, then, implies that in a world full of amateurish shooters, Arthur Bishop stands out as the consummate professional. In fact, Bishop lives and works by a strict code—precise, detached, professional, and perfectionist; in other words, Bishop delivers all the qualities anyone could wish or want in a fine mechanic."Donald Sutherland plays Harry, Bishop's friend and mentor; and then he dies. Assassinated. Not surprisingly, Bishop feels compelled and honor bound to avenge Harry's murder; but in all of his careful calculations, Bishop fails to factor-in Steve, Harry's son, who shares Bishop's desire for revenge and who brings beginner's enthusiasm to the business of learning his father's business. Of course, sinister stealth, insidious machinations, and high explosives complicate the would-be assassins' quest; and, as the promos proclaim, "those hired to fix problems become problems themselves." The Mechanic would qualify for your list of "standard guy stuff," except that it has a liberal dose of heart.

Solomon Kane

Solomon Kane

Action & Adventure

The cinematographic version of adventures of a character named Solomon Kane, invented by Robert Howard (author of "Conan the Barbarian"), is a thick mix of the mud, blood, religious fanaticism and the ever-popular theme of zombies. Solomon Kane, unlike Van Helsing, who is here hinted at, basically, a cloak and hat, posed in a much more serious condition: he does not fight with single semi-comic characters like philoprogenitive Dracula or shrek-looking Mr. Hyde. He is opposed to evil as such, evil emanating from the enemy of the human race. This struggle involves bonfires, crucifixion, and the maximum concentration, and the religion, which naturally excludes all there worldly pleasures like love, joy, and throwing in witty remarks.

Green Zone

Green Zone

Green Zone is an exciting, tough and very significant movie, which should watch all those for whom the state, national and religious boundaries between people is a sort of conventionalism. Greengrass made a harbinger of change, after which the army and the world changed appearance. Paul Greengrass directed the film about the soldier's new army: Universal - who understands why he fights; he does not blindly obey the orders, but follows the values for which his country is fighting. There is no longer place for a strict command to shoot the people; you need to negotiate with him.

Hanna

Hanna

Action & Adventure

A genuinely suspenseful thriller featuring accomplished actresses in uncharacteristic roles, Hanna combines the considerable talents of Saoirse Roana, notable for her compelling performance in The Lovely Bones, and Academy Award winner Cate Blanchett. No longer a long-suffering ingénue, Ms. Roana plays Hanna herself, "the perfect killing machine," and Ms. Blanchett plays a ruthless intelligence agent with clear family ties to Cruella DeVille, Ma Barker, Catherine Tramell, and other stellar sociopaths. "Please suspend disbelief for Hanna's fundamental premise: Hanna's father, formerly CIA and now resident of Finland's rugged frontier, has trained his daughter to become the consummate assassin. Whether or not you find it plausible, you must admit it's not a bad idea: Who ever would suspect the innocent abroad would be hell-bent on killing? Well, okay, who but Blanchett's character? As Hanna evades capture and approaches her ultimate target, she discovers a character attribute which feels and acts surprisingly like a conscience. Remember the time-honoured themes in modern literature—good versus evil, and character versus his or her own human nature? Hanna updates and intensifies those themes in a well-paced, white-knuckle post-modern, girl-power package.
