The Condemned

THE CONDEMNED
Blood/gore: No shortage of blood. An easy 9.
Dialogue: It gets a 10 because Stone Cold said so.
Sexual Content: Eh. Only about 4 girls in the movie and 2 are hot. I give it a 2.
Special Effects: Not a whole lot of special effects. Some cool stunts though. It gets a 4.
Weapons: Again, nothing sweet, but since it is just a flat out brutal movie, I give it a 7.
Destruction: Again, not a ton, but it gets an honest 6.
Overall: 38/60
Don't let the overall fairly low rating fool you. This is definitely a movie worth seeing. I figured it was going to be garbage due to the high ratio of wrestlers/bodybuilders turned actor to real quality actors. But, the movie is worth seeing for Vinnie Jones alone. This guy has to be one of the funniest people in the history of civilization. He is a former soccer hooligan and was one of the wildest bad boys of Euro Soccer before getting kicked out of the league. Other than Jason Statham, this guy is one of the biggest badasses in Hollywood. Oh, and I have to admit that Stone Cold Steve Austin really doesn't totally suck at acting. Don't get me wrong, he still is a stupid, redneck, meatheaded, former WWF superstar, but the dude has some great lines he says in this movie. I also really like the idea of the movie, which is putting ten death row inmates on an island and letting them fight til only one is alive. That is sweet. Between you, my faithful 3 fans, and me, if it were up to me I would be doing events like this 3 times a week on Pay-Per-View.
