The Marine

2006-Action
John Cena

This was a dead give in when it comes to "Man Movie" titles. First off it is a statement of who it is, "THE Marine" not simply "A" or even "One of...", No, this is the physical Embodiment of what a Marine is. This is "THE MARINE".

Synopsis:
John (Cena... hehehe playing himself) rescues a hand full of POW's breaking direct orders to hold his position. Because of this he is Discharged and forced to live a menial life as a regular civilian and a hot, sexy, beautiful wife. Things go wrong as he tries to adapt to 'Real' life but then in an act of God (or plot line sake) his wife is kidnapped (babenapped) by a gang of comedic evil geniuses. Can John (Cena) save the day? luckily his Marine training is put to use as he does everything in The Marine hand book like driving a flying car for cover, or rightly timing a Jump before something explodes to ride the shock wave to safety.

All-in-All:
Awesome overblown action. Ridicules plot, with no lovable characters to relate to. Hints of Homo/Child rape, and everyone knowing that this is a joke film except for John Cena, were he attempts to act his way out of a sack of angry Squirrels.

Riko's Rating: C+
