HAYWIRE anyone?

Anyone else really looking forward to seeing this movie?

It's got a decent cast; Ewan McGregor, Michael Fassbender, Channing Tatum, Michael Douglas, Antonio Banderas...

It's like the Bourne Identity movies, but with a sexy ass lady doing the butt-whoopin'.

Click on it just to see the ass-kicking she gives Fassbender in a hotel room.

I mean...just...DAMN...!

I might be being a little sexist when I say this but it's the truth. Besides the women folk shouldn't be able 2 read it from the kitchen anyway so it doesn't really matter. lol. (Just kidding ladies) smile

But... It does my head in that Hollywood keeps spewing out these movies featuring some small skinny ass woman beating the crap out of some big muscle bound henchman. Really? Do U think she would? I mean really? Cos I'd really like 2 see that... Sorry love but in reality there'd be one back handed slap and the movie would be over.

I'll watch this movie but 2 be honest I don't hold out much hope 4 it. smile

Gina Carano (lead actress) is a legitimate MMA fighter. Used to be an American Gladiator. Not really the "small skinny ass" type. She probably could take on those guys in real life.

Is that cos of all the mixed sex MMA she does? lol.

Seriously though, if U was 2 put her up against a man who was of a similar physical fitness level as her, I don't think it would be unfair 2 say, it'd be over 4 her pretty soon. I'm not trolling I'm just saying. I support womens equal rights as much as anyone but it's an inescapable fact that men are physically stronger than women... It just is... Well, except in Hollywood that is. smile

You mean to say, would she be able to beat a male MMA fighter of her same height & weight?

hmmm I guess not. I mean, I'd have to see what the fighters in her weight category are like.

But then again, the beast that beat her into retirement could probably whoop most GUYS regardless of size.

Did you click on the Trailer?

What would you say?

question

I would say IMO that Channing Tatum could probably give her a run for her money in real life, while Ewan McGregor probably would be an easy KO. I don't know about Fassbender.

The first line spoken by the narrator is, "She is our nation's most valuable weapon." That leads me to believe Gina's character has had more fighter training than any man and therefore could take down any man roughly the same size as her.

OH...you mean in the MOVIE.

Yeah, in the movie she's supposed to be one of those superweapon-type fighters.

I thought you meant IRL.
