Stallone\u2019s\u00a0Expendables<\/i>\u00a0franchise, for starters, proves that ticket buyers will show up to see these action icons kicking ass on screen.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

… you can also point to Liam Neeson\u2019s\u00a0Taken<\/i>\u00a0franchise as a lucrative property built on the shoulders of an older action hero. The 60-year-old Irishman\u2019s only a few years behind Schwarzenegger (65) and Stallone (66), yet he doesn\u2019t lean on his seniority as a punchline, and audiences have very little trouble accepting him as a lethal weapon.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’d say that both men have some life in their action-hero legs, and these two abysmal openings just coincidentally occurred within weeks of each other.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
