Warner Bros has given a new release date, Feb. 1, 2013, to Bullet To The Head, the Sylvester Stallone-starrer from Joel Silver’s Dark Castle Entertainment and IM Global. Earlier this year, the studio yanked it from its planned April 2012 release schedule, because the film wasn’t ready in post-production. Bullet, based on the French graphic novel, is directed by Walter Hill and centers on a hitman (Stallone) who forms an alliance with a cop to exact revenge on the killer of their respective partners. Jason Momoa, Sung Kang, Christian Slater and Sarah Shahi co-star. Stallone will next be seen on the big screen when The Expendables 2 comes out August 17.


Hard body. Stiff acting. And immovable face mask. Your 65-year-old Sylvester Stallone everybody.
Walter Hill is a genius. I mean, brilliant, brilliant stuff. I just saw HARD TIMES, again – Charles Bronson as a bare-knuckle boxer during the Depression – and that movie hasn’t aged a day.
You can watch HARD TIMES free on a certain website. And no, that wasn’t an ad, I just think everybody should check that movie out, it’s amazing.
I agree, that was a great movie.
Hard Times was shot in the mid 70′s. Walter Hill has not done much in recent years to support the ‘brilliant stuff’ statement. And, if Walter Hill were still doing ‘brilliant stuff, it would not be with Stallone. Stallone and ‘brilliant’ are an oxymoron.
I would ‘take a bullet’ in the head rather than see this film. It will take WB all year to see if it can possibly make this into anything worthwhile.
Feb 1 release date means it sucks…
Walter Hill is a nice guy and has made some great movies. But the Stallone & Momoa tandem aren’t quite Eddie & Nolte… to say the least.
seems like there was no choice. they can’t come out right after expendables, so the next choice is buried in the holiday crap. that sucks for tough action, as dragon tattoo proved, so next year is the next opp. good plan, actually.
no matter what anyone says, walter hill will make the action tough.
