Goofy movies, but it is so cool to see Harry Ford and Arnie together!

They seem to up the Ante each time out with these movies, will be cool to see Harrison Ford in this time, I think he will be a great addition to it.

Antonio Banderas has just said on a cookery tv programme that he's in the film alongside Wesley Snipes and also Mel Gibson.

Yeah, I heard about this before - except for Snipes.  But I knew about the others.  This thing is going to be like an 80's action star reunion!

Seems like a lot of guys in this, so guessing some of these will be more cameos for a few scenes, then in the entire movie. Mel Gibson has not been in much the past few years, probably due to all his problems, so this probably will help out his profile, along with the other movies he is working on. Looking at IMDB, it might be over 10 years since I actually saw a new movie Mel was in.

Loved the first 2. I even saw a documentary about the 1st one on Netflix.

Ok, has Mel Gibson been training with Hugh Jackman?!?

I am not sure the white tank top is a good look for Mel, sort of projects an image of his past. He sure is big though, guess sort of needed for action movies.

We all know he has had problems in the past, drinking, crazy anti-jewish remarks and his attitude to women has a lot to be desired but I hope he has come through all that and this is his come-back. Fingers crossed.

I wouldn't ask him about any of that now! He looks like the Hulk!

Probably the tax enforcer for Snipes ;)

Hah, I forgot about that tax evasion charge.  I guess he did his time.

Saw this movie today and thought it was pretty fun.  I didn't even mind the new "kids" in it or that it was rated PG-13 and not R like the first two films.  Plenty of violence and action - which is what these movies are all about.  I think Antonio Banderas almost ran away with the movie - he's really great in it.  Fun times!

Loved the movie and the franchise..... but it bombed at the box office. I know a coy of it leaked on the net a while back..... bummer.

Yeah I read they've been aggressively pursuing sites hosting links, uploaders and downloaders.  Didn't something similar happen with the second movie too?  I wonder if the early leak of this third one was a revenge tactic or something.

I enjoyed this movie a lot, always fun to see all the old action stars go at it. Sorry that it did not really do all that well at the box office, I guess all the aging action stars just no longer connect with todays movie going audience. It does make me feel a little sad as it does seem like our generation is slipping more and more in relevance for today's pop culture. If all we get is 3 movies, then I am fine, as I enjoyed all of them very much.
