 Re: Escape Plan
I find it quite funny that Fiddy's name is Hush. It's pretty much what I want him to do when I hear his music.

 Re: Escape Plan
Communism allows it. I've tried to tell them otherwise, but they can't understand English.

 Re: Escape Plan
One of the biggest laughs came when the ship's driver (an Asian man) sees Ray Breslin come to the control room and says on the phone (to Warden Hobbs) "I see him. I'll take care of it". Then Ray walks in and punches him out with one punch. The cinema roared with laughter at that. I thought it was pretty funny too. But the fact that he's an Asian guy made it more funny in a sort of there's-no-way-an-Asian-can-take-on-Stallone way.

 Re: Escape Plan
I did see this and it was quite good - - certainly a better Schwarzenegger movie than that crappy Last Stand. Both he and Stallone did a good job of reprising their classic character traits. Nonetheless, I see I couldn't be bothered writing a review for it after I saw it, and now I can already barely remember it.
3 out of 5.

Escape Plan
I saw it for a 3rd time and it really impresses me how Arnold acts. This is probably one of his greatest acting films. I hope he can also shine in the acting dept. in Maggie. It is a really neat and intelligent action thriller, with some of the best one-liners of the last 10 years (mainly because people don't really do the one-liner anymore, but also because nobody can deliver them like Arnold).

 Re: Escape Plan
Think it's incredible how this only 25mil domestically, but then easily over a 100mil elsewhere. Being that it was made for about 50mil, you can still consider it a hit I'd say.

 Re: Escape Plan
It made $140m worldwide. It did well. Surprised they didn't green light another Schwarzy-Stallone actioner actually. It also made another $15m on US home video, which isn't great, but I don't have up-to-date figures.
