$67 million? What?! No wonder this movie bombed!
First, let me say that I really liked "Last Man Standing". I was one of the three or four people that actually saw this in a theater. Walter Hill is a great director.
That having been said, why in the world did this flick cost so damn much to make? A small town set in the desert, some old-timey cars. We know that Bruce will work cheap if he believes in the movie (and I remember in interviews at the time that he believed in this one as art rather than a commercial action flick).
If this thing didn't cost so much but was otherwise the same, I bet it would be much better remembered today.
