It shows a car spinning through the air toward Bruce, who ducks between two other cars while it smashes down just inches from his head.  This is followed by a shot of another car flying through the air and smashing into a hovering helicopter.<\/p>\n<p>Both of those scenes are in the beginning of the movie.  The slow part.  It picks up from there.<\/p>\n<p>I seldom go to the movies, because I think they&#8217;re way overpriced, but some flicks just have to be seen on the big screen.  This is one of them.  There is a bit of a story in there somewhere, but fortunately it doesn&#8217;t interfere with the chase scenes, vehicles smashing into each other, gun fights, acrobatics, martial arts, smart ass jokes, and lots and lots of stuff blowed up.<\/p>\n<p>I love Stuff Blowed Up movies, and haven&#8217;t seen a good one in quite a while.  This one explodes cars, trucks, helicopters, kittens, planes, rooms, buildings power plants and just about anything else that&#8217;s not locked down.<\/p>\n<p>Just kidding about the kittens.  Bruce would never hurt a kitten.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for some mindless fun and lots of action, see this one on the big screen while you still can.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img src=\"http:\/\/www.davehitt.com\/movies\/graphics\/sbu4.gif\" alt=\"Stuff Blowed Up\" \/><\/p>\n<p title=\"Stuff Blowed Up Icon\" alt=\"Stuff Blowed Up Icon\" height=\"29\" width=\"112\" align=\"center&gt;&lt;img mce_tsrc=\"> I used to do movie reviews regularly.
