Not too shabby actually for a DTV WWE Studios movie.:ehh:

It's probably my favorite of the series that I've seen (I have yet to see the second one), of course it's filled with tons of nonsensical moments (like the fact the Miz gets a scoped weapon spawn right in time for the third act), but luckily it's also abundant with acts of fukkery (the bad guy mercs massacre a whole police station in this one).

It's obvious though this wasn't originally written as a direct sequel to the third, the only connection is that The Miz plays the same character and five minutes into the movie they mention the events of the previous one and then forget all about it. But for what little acting there is to do in these kind of movies, he actually improved noticeably enough.

Summer Rae's role is basically that of the female henchman (henchwoman? woman hench? wench?). She gets an introduction that makes it seem like she'll be a bigger deal then she really is (a sniper shoots two guys in the head, then throws off the camo disguise cape in slow-motion on some Metal Gear Solid shyt to reveal it's her) but then she just mostly stands around and shoots guns like every other nameless henchman, except she has a name and like five lines of dialogue.

She has a pretty decent fight scene with the Miz though, although it's cut a bit short (that's how I realized it was a decent fight, because I was disappointed it ended so soon). Anyway, if you like gunfights with lots of headshots, the sight of ten to twenty policemen getting clapped ruthlessly and a third act that turns the movie into a knock-off of the Stone Cold classic Hunt To Kill, it's a good way to kill 90 minutes of your time.

These movies cost less than $2 million to produce and make double that in US dvd/blu-ray sales alone. Add the VOD market plus worldwide sales and it's a profitable franchise.

Plus it's fun B-movie fukkery. :manny:
Yeah I can see how that works , but I stopped caring bout the franchise even after the first movie :francis:
