Testostero-verload
"Death Race" (Aug. 2008)
Explosions. Babes. Guns. Beer. The staples of testosterone-fueled guy movies seem to be popping up a lot more often than usual lately...
The loud, highly explosive trailer for "Death Race," due out August 22, pauses to highlight a female driver’s rear end and certainly suggests the trend is nowhere near finished. On that note, here's a look back at the many dude-oriented flicks released in the last two years, and a rating for their level of, um, machismo-osity? (Note: On this scale, a high rating does not necessarily indicate high quality.) —Matt Pais, Metromix
