Film Review – The Last Stand

It might be hard to believe, but Arnold Schwarzenegger hasn’t starred in
a movie since 2003’s “Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines.” Sure, there
have been cameos in two “Expendables” screen adventures and a weird part
in 2004’s “Around the World in 80 Days,” but the once mighty action
hero has laid low over the last decade, fighting different battles with a
special group of villains as Governor of California. “The Last Stand”
treats Schwarzenegger’s return as business as usual, dropping the star
into the thick of the hunt, with only a few jokes addressing his
advanced age before he’s back cracking skulls and blasting away goons.
Sure, the gags could be better, the casting stronger, and the thrills
continuous, but “The Last Stand” remains immensely enjoyable and
occasionally freewheeling. At the very least, it’s good to have
Schwarzenegger back on the screen where he belongs. Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
