Rip-off of a rip-off

The movie was a rip-off of Sudden Death (rock concert instead of hockey game) and that movie was a rip-off of Die Hard. With that said for being a rip-off I actually enjoyed it for what is actually was. If you can forget about it`s obvious a rip-off then you might enjoy it as well. Just because a movie is sequel, remake or in this case even a rip-off then many people would not even care to watch it just because of the fact that they know that this is one of those things I mentioned above but that does not mean that it can`t be good.

In essence, your post about a rip-off is a rip-off of other posts about rip-offs.

lololol.nice.

The movie is...quite good actually. I enjoyed it, although yes, it does make you feel like you`ve seen a similar story before and you instantanly remember of "Die Hard". But just a bit. I recommend it. It sure is one of Lungren`s best!

So, Terrorists/robbers take over (Insert here).
How many films are about police partners, or lone wolf cops, of men in seek of revenge. Theres only so many storylines action movies can take.

'The Expendables'= Manly

This one's actually based on true events. A couple of years ago Chechen terrorists held up a theater in Moscow in a similar fashion, except there was no president and it was over after the feds gased the place and killed all terrorists and about a third of hostages.
