Well, here’s a weird sensation we haven’t felt in a long time — excitement for a new Arnold Schwarzenegger movie. Okay, maybe “excitement” is overstating it a bit, but we’re genuinely curious about “Sabotage,” his upcoming flick co-written and directed by David Ayer because it actually looks kinda good. High art? Surely not, but perhaps a better than average B-movie which is all we could ask for.
Anyway, a couple more peeks at the film have arrived with a new clip and UK trailer dropping online. They provide more testosterone fuelled marketing with the brief sequence highlight a beef between Arnie and Joe Manganiello, while the promo pumps more bullets into the story of a DEA task force who rips off a drug cartel and pays the price as the body count begins to rise. Like we said, it could be a pretty nifty crime potboiler if it’s pulled off the way we hope.
“Sabotage” arrives on March 28th.
Jagernauth always with the "action isn't high art" remarks, what the hell, do you toss and turn at night struggling with your shameful attraction to action movies and how to justify it to artsy film snob friends, just come out with it already, it's 2014.
