I was really hoping that "The Last Stand" was going to be a loud, cheesy, and fun action film like "The Expendables". Instead it was just loud and cheesy, like the "The Expendables 2". It had all of the makings of a fun, mindless action: a notable action star (Arnold Schwarzenegger), a goofy supporting cast (Johnny Knoxville, Luis Guzman, the quarterback from "Friday Night Lights"), spiffy one-liners, and a horrible plot that wouldn't get in the way of all of the awesome violence that was bound to happen. Somehow, the formula didn't work out the way I hoped it would. I wasn't having much fun. Schwarzenegger seemed rusty, and the directing was half-assed at best. Peter Stormare, for the short amount of time he was on screen, was a pretty decent villain (Much more interesting than the main bad guy). This is seriously one you can skip, but you probably already knew that.
