DVD Reviews of Sylvester Stallone: 4 Film Favorites (Tango & Cash / Demolition Man / The Specialist / Over the Top)
DVD Review: 4 Film Favorites? REALLY?!!
Summary: 2 Stars
When I think of my favorite Sylvester Stallone films, I think of ROCKY, FIRST BLOOD, NIGHTHAWKS, not ANY of these films. I'd pick ROCKY IV over OVER THE TOP, RAMBO II instead of THE SPECIALIST. This is just a pile of mediocre Stallone films in an attempt to actually SELL them.
DEMOLITION MAN is probably the best of the bunch (however some reviewers are claiming that you can't turn off the director's commentary, so beware). Unlike the other action films Stallone or several others have been in, this film has a clever sense of humor, thanks in part to some hilarious banter from Wesley Snipes. Stallone is the perfect straight man, but the role of the comic foil is handed to Sandra Bullock. Quite simply, she isn't funny. After a funny setup of the pacifist future San Angeles, and Stallone and Snipes a pair of 90s rivals doing battle in the future, the film gets bogged down by typical action boredom. Do check out the foreshadowing of Arnold Schwarzenegger's political career as Sly and Bullock discuss "President Scharzenegger," funniest moment in the movie.
TANGO & CASH has its moments. Kirt Russel and Sly turn out to be a well-matched comedic pair, but the story is so one-dimensional, and there really is no payoff at the end. Better than COBRA, but still not worth it.
THE SPECIALIST is incredibly boring. I couldn't even sit through the whole movie, falling asleep within 30 minutes of the film.
OVER THE TOP is probably the worst here, although I enjoyed it more than THE SPECIALIST. At least the title perfectly describes the film: OVER THE TOP. I think Norm MacDonald really outlined this movie perfectly: "It combines the emotional drama of a child custody battle with... ARM WRESTLING!" And that's basically, the whole movie. How Sly could have possibly though Arm Wrestling would be an interesting sport is beyond me, however the final match does leave you on the edge of your seat. The big problem is Stallone's son, who is unbearably annoying as is the whole premise to this stupid plot involving his grandfather. However, if you are an avid Stallone fan, than you have to watch this!
If you're not much of a Stallone fan, I highly recommend ROCKY, which is simply one of the best movies of all time. Some of the sequels, II, III and ROCKY BALBOA are good too. His best action movie? Probably RAMBO, although I think FIRST BLOOD is much higher quality film in terms of plot, execution, and political statement. Get those movies before checking out this "Film Favorites" and you'll see it is improperly titled.
