Movie Connections:

Edited from Down Periscope (1996)

it isn't stealthy, and there's precious little fight.

I'm not going to argue with anyone else. This has "fortnight old turkey, should have been chucked in the bin after Christmas", writ large upon it.

Ice and Costas have worked a lot together. They're obviously mates, the fight scenes are laughable. The only reasoning I can see behind why they would want to be involved in this, is that the gas bill must have been pressing again.

They are both capable of much, much better.

C'mon boys, don't do this kind of thing again. Please. Pretty please!
