First Look: Now, for ‘Bullet’ points
January 31, 2013 - 2:04 am
What: “Bullet to the Head”
When: Opening Friday
Cast: Sylvester Stallone, Sung Kang, Sarah Shahi, Christian Slater, John Seda and Jason Momoa
Director: Walter Hill
The story: A New Orleans hitman (Stallone) partners with a Washington, D.C., detective (Kang) to avenge their partners’ killings in this adaptation of the graphic novel “Du Plomb Dans La Tete.”
The buzz: Here’s hoping it performs better than Arnold Schwarzenegger’s “The Last Stand” or “The Tomb” – the September movie starring the aging action veterans – may end up being buried for good.
