For example, if you start with Lone Wolf McQuade or Code of Silence with Chuck Norris or Under Siege or Out for Justice with Seagal, those are pretty much as good as it gets with them, and if you go through their careers looking for a bigger highlight, you’re just not going to find it. Have you ever gotten obsessed or just really gotten into a group of movies, but as you progressed through the series, you’re ultimately a little disappointed because the first one you saw was the best of the whole group? I can probably say that personally this has happened to me on a couple of occasions throughout my time as a film junkie, and I think especially you run this risk if you take in the works of different action stars. Ong Bak 2 Starring Tony Jaa, Sorapong Chatree, and Sarunyu Wongkrachang.

Now, finding this movie on your own may take some doing, because more than likely they’re not going to be at your local theater, but with some creativity you should be able to get a hold of your own copies. Still, if you’re not finding the type of fun you’d expect from your local cineplex at this time of year, I’ve found a recent alternative that manages to bring the awesome, without having to push a three hour running time or make you sit through what passes for humor. Joe: The Rise of Cobra and Halloween II end up as bad as they look in the trailers we’ve seen so far.

Still, it’s not all bad, and I think when it comes down to it, with movies like Red Cliff II and others supplementing my summer schedule, as well as geeky fair like the new Harry Potter and Inglourious Basterds there’s still plenty of fun to be had, even if G.I. Django’s wearing a cone of shame so I’ll get Mum while she’s lunging instead! 😈 #maltesepuppies
