    Escape Plan [film] - Arni and Sly

    http://www.aintitcool.com/node/53689

    Mikael Hafstrom directs this prison-set thriller about the man who designs prisons to be escapeproof finding himself wrongly imprisoned in one of his toughest installations.

    In the above interview, Canton says Arnold and Sly will have real screentime, with Arnie being much more than a cameo. In fact, he brings up HEAT, obviously drawing parallels between Arnold and Sly and Pacino and De Niro chewing the scenery together.

    EDIT: "The Tomb" -> renamed to -> "Escape Plan"

    I was hoping this was going to be a movie based on The Tomb by F. Paul Wilson.

    Stallone and Schwarzenegger are both hypocrites in that they don't want private citizens to own firearms, yet they make movies glamorizing guns.

    Reasonable reviews - http://www.cinemablend.com/reviews/E...Plan-6616.html

    Escape Plan whips up enough nostalgic fun from two hard-hitting action heroes who haven’t completely forgotten how to hammer an audience with gratuitous thrills, and I wish more throwbacks like this were part of Sly and Arnold’s collective plan.

    I saw it tonight, and I thought it was pretty damn good. It takes awhile before Arnie gets thrown into the mix, but they light up the screen when they are together.
    They should've done something when they were bigger because it would've made big dinero.
    Good stuff, and Vinnie Jones as a sadistic guard steals every scene he's in.
    Too bad it didn't kill at the box office. I'd like to see them team up again.

    Good to hear that it's good, Ron.

    I pretty much never go to the cinema anymore these days, so I usually catch up on DVD/BR or Sky Movies. I too will add it to the list.
