I have Netflix and Hulu, and as many subscribers know, it's great for binge-watching series, not so great for movies.

Willis is in the Steven Seagal zone...both have gotten to the point where they are making movies that are either limited in theatrical release or are direct-to-DVD. Willis WAS in the "all-star" series of "Expendables" movies, but he had limited screen time. In most of his movies he's an ex-cop, ex-CIA agent, ex-crime lord...he plays them all the same...who shows up seeking revenge OR gets taken down in an act of revenge.

Seagal shows up, usually speaks in a painfully bad fake accent, and at some point in the movie, sprays some bullets and throws a few martial arts kicks.

They yoosta be contenders. Now, not so much.
