Sylvester Stallone’s latest movie, Alarum, has earned a rare and embarrassing 0% score on Rotten Tomatoes. It marks the second time in just two months that Stallone has hit this dubious milestone.
Ouch! Do you think Stallone’s recent choices are tarnishing his legendary status?
Alarum, a direct-to-VOD action movie, stars Scott Eastwood, Willa Fitzgerald, and Mike Colter, with Stallone playing a retired spy. Despite its star power, none of the 17 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes gave it a positive score.
This premise sounds decent on paper. What went so wrong with the execution?
This isn’t Stallone’s first recent flop. Just two months ago, his film Armor also scored a dreaded 0% on Rotten Tomatoes. Both films have low-budget, one-word titles and underwhelming reviews in common.
Is Stallone stuck in a rut, or is the market just oversaturated with these types of movies?
While Stallone’s TV series Tulsa King has been a success with two seasons and a third on the way, his film career has hit a rough patch. Even his recent Expendables 4 barely escaped disaster, earning only 17 positive reviews out of 124.
Maybe it’s time for Stallone to focus on TV and leave the direct-to-VOD films behind. Agree?
