Steve Austin's Damaged
 

Grammatically you can take that title either way.

From the opening wooden, emotionless Austin/Parole Board dialogue placed over generic prison scenery to the generic finale with classic 80s inspirational synthesizer music the film was a mess. Oh and did I mention they dubbed in cheering that sounded like it came from a packed arena into a scene where there were clearly only 50-60 people there?

Sub-plots were cliche, dialogue was bad, Austin was okay aside from a few parts but, the movie was in tone somewhere between an episode of Walker: Texas Ranger and the worst scene in The Wrestler. It had 2 fights that were entertaining though. My advice is to watch it online/DVD so you can fast forward the needless talking.

*note: I actually liked The Condemned a lot.

I wanted so bad to like this. I think The Expendables will rock though.

Looks like one of those films that you watch once, kinda forget about it, but then in later references you will claim 'it's not actually that bad'.

I don't think so. I think the Condemned might fall into that category since I can't remember the specifics of any of the fights in that movie but, I will remember my over-all dissatisfaction with this film and the amateurish directing.
