This is one of the worst action movies Ive ever seen. Ive never walked out of a movie before in my life, but I would have been totally okay with walking out of this one!

How is it that studios are so willing to back the "R" rated raunchy,comedy, yet become completely neutered when it comes to slasher films?,The PG-13 slasher film is the same thing as releasing a porn without,sex, or a comedy without the funny parts. It makes no sense and people,should not support that.
