The Specialist

[RyanSz 3140]

Stallone is a former CIA explosives expert going after his former mentor James Woods with the help of skanky looking Sharon Stone. She wants revenge against the mob family that Woods works for, especially Eric Roberts who killed Stone's parents, who in flashbacks has not aged a day while Stone ages a couple decades to current time. This was made in the time that Stallone was IN LOVE with computers and the internet, similar to plotlines in Assassins, which is made more hysterical by the fact that Stallone looks completely out of place when using any sort of technology that isn't a car or a gun.

It also has Rod Steiger putting on a very over-the-top Cuban accent, and was directed by the guy (Luis Llosa) who would go on to make Anaconda!

Yeah there is enough vintage Stallone in this to warrant an episode.

Just thought I would re-watch this since I hadn't seen it since I was 14. I fondly remember it playing in the background when I had a bunch of friends over and we were like holy crap Sharon stone's tits. This movie like Sharon Stone's tits has not aged well. The budget for this movie must have all went to pay Stallone, Stone, Woods and to a lesser degree Eric Roberts because the plot and dialog are fucking abysmal also explosions! I imagine Michael Bay just staight up jerking it to this movie. My god they could easily just shoot someone or run away but no let's set up this whole elaborate explosion that blows a fucking room off of a hotel. Uggggghhh!!!!

I think that I have this movie combined with Assassins in my head.

This would be a perfect double live show pairing.

I have a "double feature" DVD thing with both movies. So weird.

I actually found this thread searching "assassins" so that's kind of funny. Both are absolutely hdtgm worthy.

The shots of Stallone using a laptop hold a special place in my heart.

I love that Sly's character is named "Ray Quick", like a comic book character from the 40's. It was between that and "Harry Runsfast".
