"Hero's return". The actors of the triumphant callback

Released in 2013 in the world film distribution criminal thriller "The Return of the Hero" (actors: A. Schwarzenegger, F. Whitaker, D. Knoxville, R. Santoro, D. Alexander) is the Hollywood debut of Korean director Kim Ji Un. This project is significant in that the star of world cinema and US policy, the ex-governor of California Arnold Schwarzenegger played in the film for the first time in the last ten years the main role.

The first in ten years

The former governor accepted the offer from the promising Korean, without hesitation. The star of the rebels of the 90s was sure that he did not become accustomed to acting skills and proved his professionalism in the action movie "The Return of the Hero". Actors who played the role of other heroes, were happy to work shoulder to shoulder with a famous movie veteran. Schwarzenegger preferred the other proposals to this picture, because she had the ideal format for his triumphant callback. Arnold wins and looks organically in the role of the hero of old age, ideally combining traditional invulnerability and bullet-proof with self-irony and veteran squint. And debutant in American cinema Kim Ji Unu managed to maintain a shaky balance between author's fantasy, ingenuity and frank irony.

It's no coincidence

The actors of the film "The Return of the Hero" gave feedback on their game rather meager, as all the critics' attention was riveted to the hero of the militants who became classics. At the same time, the specialists sang praises to the director, saying that he managed to remove the ideal tape. In the picture there are in abundance all genre cliches, however the insurgent found his grateful audience. Philosophical reflections and other psychologism to the admirers of the "Commando" are absolutely not required. They have enough of the presence of Arnold Schwarzenegger, from which even after many years the inimitable aura of the hero, which has not yet acquired neither Jason Statham, nor other modern actors. Among other things, the film contains citations about nobility and honor from the cult westerns of Clint Eastwood, films "Assault on the 13th plot", "The Seven Samurai", etc. This is how the leading film critics characterize the film "The Return of the Hero". Actors and the roles that they play, accurately displayed on the screen the idea of the creators and did not cause caustic remarks.

Plot. Start

In the border with Mexico, the American town of Sommerton, there is a series of unpleasant and alarming events. The arrival of the imposing man, who introduced himself as a Hollywood clipmaker (Peter Stormare) and started in a hurry for filming the occupation of farmland, caused a lot of rumors among the townspeople. In a local cafe in which all visitors know each other, there are ill-mannered and suspicious individuals. At the same time, drug lord Cortez (Eduardo Noriega) escapes in Las Vegas. He is being pursued by special forces, helicopters, FBI agents and a clumsy African American agent (Forest Whitaker), but it's no use. This is the plot of the narrative narrative of the militant "Return of the Hero." The actors who played the supporters of Arnold will be listed below.

The Old Guard

In this state of affairs, only hope remains for the old sheriff of the town (Arnold Schwarzenegger), his friends and simply conscious local citizens. The actors of the movie "The Return of the Hero", who played Arnie's comrades-in-arms, are little known to the viewer. The comic image of the Puerto Rican assistant aired on the screen of Luis Guzman, a local bandit, or rather a hooligan, the sultry Brazilian Rodrigo Santoro, known to the viewer for the epic "300 Spartans". MTV star Johnny Knoxville played the role of an eccentric owner of the weapons museum. The company of men was diluted by the decidedly burning brunette Jamie Alexander, who previously starred in the thriller "The Other Side". Such a non-standard team is supported by the rest of the inhabitants of Sommerton. The whole company, borrowing from the museum machine gun "Maxim", decides to fight back the army of drug mafia. It is no coincidence that the original name of the painting is "Last Stand" - the last battle.

I'll be back

"The Return of the Hero" turned out to be an unusually sunny and cheerful action movie, unlike the pathos and like the serious "The Expendables" and the fifth "Die Hard". Positive characters and villains communicate with each other only with unprecedented phrases, their dialogue can not be heard without laughter. This is due to the script writer Andrew Knauer, who put the inevitable Hochma on the personality of the ex-governor into suitable episodes and did not force Schwarzenegger to repeat the classic phrase "I'll be back." It is noticeable that the whole crew enjoyed the joint work on the project "The Return of the Hero." The actors felt at ease, Johnny Knoxville, for example, behaved the same way as in his own program "Eccentrics." And moderately well-fed mustachioed man in full blossom, Luis Guzman managed to arrange in one episode of shootings such that no modern superhero can be repeated.
