Watch The Marine For Free

So much average

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

This movie was over the top and boring. But what can you expect from a no talent retard like John Cena. Who has never been in the armed forces. He should never act again. He's a horrible wrestler, he's atrocious on the mic and he gets handed everything he wants. So how can you expect something good to come from a piece of garbage like him.

Well since the late 1980s several wrestling stars have taken to the big screen with variable success. Dwayne Johnson seems to be standout actor from a roll call that includes Roddy Piper and Steve Borden amongst others.WWE has started their own film division in order to promote some of its bigger wrestling stars hence here we have John Cena playing an ex-marine going after a group of trigger happy diamond thieves who are on the run and have kidnapped his wife.Its never explained why the thieves happen to kill police and other members of the public when they should be keeping a low profile. As always the gang tends to bicker among themselves, one of them even shoots the other for unfathomable reasons.Cena is in hot pursuit of the bad guys and nothing seems to stop him, he really is like the terminator which also happens to be the best joke made in the film in the presence of Robert (T-1000) Patrick.Given the fact that Cena has all the presence and acting ability of a tree trunk its only left to the bad guys to inject some zest to the film. Patrick adds some humour here and there and Anthony Ray Parker gives a surreal explanation why he does not like rock candy.The film has some big explosions which are very well done, there are some good action scenes which I expect Cena to excel at but he brings actually no personality to the film. As this is a dumb old action film you would want the star to have some charisma to carry the film and Cena is totally outside his comfort zone.

Ex-Marine John Triton, finding trouble fitting into civilian life, gets dragged into chasing a bunch of crooks when his wife is kidnapped.I know nothing about WWF wrestling, but I gather John Cena, who plays Triton, is one of its exponents, and the movie success of Dwayne Johnson, also a wrestler in a previous life, may explain the existence of The Marine as a vehicle for Cena. There's only one problem: Johnson can act, Cena can't.And not only can't he act, he fails to do so in a film which would have required acting of Oscar-winning standards to overcome the ridiculous script - in one car chase, a car he is driving is peppered with machine gun fire (as evidenced by the bullet strikes all over the bonnet, sides and roof) without a tyre being hit or, more importantly, Cena himself given that he is driving having knocked out the windshield. Mind you, let's be fair, he's holding up a bulletproof vest in one arm to protect himself (of course, this means he can't see where he's going, but let's overlook that).Robert Patrick is the main villain and looks as if he's having fun chewing scenery. Kelly Carlson is Triton's wife and looks like a young Sharon Stone. There is no other reason for watching this film.

This was completely over the top but I sure had fun watching a fire proof, bullet proof, blast proof, building proof John Cena retrieve his wife from a group of murderous diamond thieves.I think you need to be in the right mood to appreciate this, i.e. -hungover. One of those so-bad-its-awesome movies; action packed with thousands of bullets, big explosions, big hero and some funny lines from the bad guys, who ended up being very entertaining especially Robert Patrick. I did wonder how they managed to find a stuntman for John Cena who is freakishly huge 04.12.14Favorite quote "This guy is like the terminator"
