Arnold Schwarzenegger‘s long awaited (really?) return to film will be marked by The Expendables 2 (we’re not going to count his phoned-in, 30-second cameo in the original). However, the true mark of Arnie’s comeback success will be tested by The Last Stand, his first leading role since exiting office in California.
Once you get past the hurdle of the hulking Austrian playing a quaint, small-town American sheriff, this looks to be a fairly decent revenge flick with lots of explosions and cheerfully stupid one liners. Also, Peter Stormare seems to be playing a villain, and we will always be excited by the prospect of that.
Directed by Kim Ji-woon (A Tale of Two Sisters), The Last Stand hits cinemas February 2013.
