Bullet to the Head (2013)

  This is an objectively terrible movie.  That should be obvious.  In no way is this a masterful tapestry of sight and sound brought to you by accomplished thespians. 

A cop (Sung Kang) and a hitman (Sylvester Stallone) join forces in order to get revenge for their dead partners by taking out a corrupt real estate developer (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje), his lawyer (Christian Slater), and his mercenary (Jason Momoa).

That's it.

Sarah Shahi is in it and she gets almost naked enough to be worth the ticket price.  Almost.

I've never been a Jason Momoa fan.  Mostly because all I've ever seen him in is Game of Thrones and he didn't really speak.  I've heard that he's actually quite articulate and intelligent but I've never seen any indications of it until this movie.  He seems like he's having a really good time on-screen, stabbing people and generally being a psycho.  It actually reminded me a little of Brandon Lee, who I never really found attractive until he smiled.  It changed his entire face. 

Don't waste your money on box office tickets for this.  It will be on TNT in about a year and you can watch it then.
