Michael Fassbender Gets His Ass Kicked In HAYWIRE
so steven soderbergh has a new flick coming our way this friday, and i’m happy to say that despite Michael Fassbender’s presence, Haywire looks absolutely nothing like Full Frontal. har har. seriously, this is a very good thing, cause when Soderbergh isn’t working with David Duchovny’s prop erection, dude pretty much only makes good films (and that includes Bubble and Ocean’s Twelve, for those of you keeping score). i’ve seen this sequence in its entirety, and it’s a doozy, an instant highlight of a filmography that’s comprised of nothing but. Gina Carano’s experience allowed Soderbergh to stage fight scenes in a way that has proven impossible for most western films, and this clip here is a bruising hint at what’s in store.
i’d love to see more Criterion filmmakers branch out and try their hand at action films… maybe Todd Solondz can helm the next Die Hard, or something.
