QUEUE REVIEW

We Found It on Watch Instantly: Wesley Snipes in Game of Death

By Max Silvestri at

What It's About: When an undercover CIA agent's assassination target is almost assassinated by other CIA agents, he decides to try and save the guy for no reason.

Who It's For: People clinically addicted to the sound of silenced pistols firing blanks.

Benjamin Franklin said that nothing is certain except death and taxes. But that was before Wesley Snipes. If you hate taxes like Wesley hates taxes, the only thing that is certain is death. (Though I sometimes think Mr. Snipes believes he IS Blade, a Daywalker he has played in films. Therefore, not even his death is certain.) 2010's Game of Death does not address Snipes's recent tax troubles. It focuses mostly on death.
