Sabotage


Critics hated this movie but I got my money's worth and more.
The money's worth:
- I wanted to see a movie Directed by David Ayer (End of Watch, Training Days, Harsh Times) with gore, blood, guts, and no holding back to be politically correct. I got that in this movie in SPADES.
- The movie included a great cast of actors: Mireille Enos,Terrence Howard, Josh Holloway, Sam Worthington, and Arnold Schwarzenegger as Breacher. Enos steals the movie with a display of talent that we have not seen in her prior performances. Her acting alone is worth the price of admission.

The More:
- This is Arnold's best performance since his comeback. He acts like a normal dude that still works out to keep in shape, goes too work wearing ill fitting off the rack suits, and has worked many years but is still behind the 8 ball.

Yes, the script was weak but I praise the movie for trying to portray Arnold in a different light and Ayer's bold direction.

Verdict:
Most surprising action movie so far this year.
