Stallone at his smallest.


His physique in the movie didn't match the movie posters 😳 LOL

He did appear to flex himself versus being relaxed. Even so the result is still believable as they had to have a strategy and luck besides the muscle strength alone.

He indeed flexed but I guess Sly wanted to make Hawks appear smaller while exuding more heart and the guys he was against were so over the top I guess it makes it work. Compared to his roles in Rocky and Rambo I guess Sly wanted to appear more natural. Even Bruce Springsteen back in '84 looked buffer than Sly does in this movie LOL
