AVERAGE STRAIGHT TO VIDEO FARE. I bought a double bluray pack with Escape Plan and Escape Plan 2 for 15 bucks. The original had better supporting actor's and actually used the main cast. In Escape Plan 2 we rarely see Stallone or Bautista in action scenes. When they're in them, it is brief. Escape Plan 2 is more or less a kung-fu movie for most of the duration and some gun fights and hand to hand combat here and there. I was hoping to see more Bautista since he is second billed after Stallone, but he is absent for the majority of the film not even showing up until the 40 min or so mark. I wouldn't go out of your way to see this but if you want a typical straight to video fare you don't have to think about at all to chew up a hour and a half well in that case check it out.

I have always found David Cross to be pretty entertaining and humorous, but this show made me a huge fan. He was great on Mr. Show & Arrested Development, but he shines here in a show that was his own creation. Much of the show is about a man trying to find himself in a foreign country, but by doing so, he tries to hard and fails miserably at points, actually a lot. He is completely ignorant to the new culture and since he doesn't understand it, he doesn't grasp that he is insulting every one in sight. The supporting cast is great, including one of the main kids in "The Inbetweeners", another great show. Will Arnet is hilarious as usual and gets funnier as the show progresses through-out it's 6 episodes. The humor is intelligent, although it's hidden in the stupidity, I can almost compare it to South Park in that way, but live action and a little less subtle. Well worth a watch!
