I'm not a huge fan of either Stallone or superheroes, but I'm intrigued enough to give it a shot.

IMO, most of Stallone's films are meh, but Rocky, Rocky II, First Blood, and Copland were all solid flicks in my book. Hopefully this will rank up there with them.

Looks interesting. Basic premise sort of reminds me of Joe Mangianello in Archenemy, but they're clearly taking it in different direction...

It actually looks interesting and has an interesting premise of the old Superhero who no longer superheroes and everyone thinks is dead. Been done in comics multiple times, but not many times in movies that I recall.

Also sounds like it might deal with aging Superheroes, a subject I think only Logan really addressed, where your abilities sort of get a little less as you get old.

Yeh, I cant think of any terrible movies that I’d associate with Stallone and none better than First Blood and Rocky. He’s got a solid career of mid tier movies, its made him famous so he must have done something right

And, he has a weird kind of range.

Anyone here ever seen the movie, Oscar?

It is a comedy - a variation on medieval commedia dell'arte scenario, in which Stallone plays a gangster trying to go straight in the middle of some personal chaos and the cops trying to nab him. It is awesome!

Based on the strength of the trailer, I'm willing to give it a try. I remember being very unimpressed by Stallone's films when I was younger, but his last few movies were entertaining, so it might be worth taking a look at this.

I like Stallone. A lot. And I like this trailer. Most of what the entertainment industry puts out these days interests me approximately as much as three-day-old unrefrigerated baba ganoush (hi, MCU!), but this one looks good.

Yes, looks interesting. There have been many cases of someone "coming back from the dead" and using that to hide their identity, as a superhero, but I don't recall a "dead and retired" superhero.

I'm at that age where I just want to see older people beating up on younger people.
