4. Bullet To The Head
Apart from the fact that Bullet to the Head is directed by Walter Hill, director of 80s classics such as 48 Hrs (Eddie Murphy, Nick Nolte) and Brewsters Millions (Richard Pryor). The film stars everyones favourite action hero Sylvester Stallone (Rocky), who is headlining his first live-action feature film outside of The Expendables since 2008. Bullet to the Head is based upon Alexis Nolent's French graphic novel Du Plomb Dans La Tete. The film revolves around a hitman (Stallone) who teams up with a young NYPD detective in a high-stakes investigation that leads from dingy back alleys all the way to the power corridors of New Orleans. The unlikely duo, brought together by two vicious murders, take on all who stand in their way, willing to sacrifice everything to exact revenge. The film also stars Christian Slater (My Own Worst Enemy) and British actor Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (Lost). With 80s action heros making a comeback including Arnold Schwarzenegger returning to action movies with The Last Stand (Jee-Woon Kim), its good to also see Stallone back on the saddle.
