Warning: SPOILERS for Kandahar are in play. If you haven’t seen Gerard Butler’s action-drama just yet, you’ve been warned.
Nothing beats a proper, practical explosion. Some of the best action movies are built on that truth, resulting in record-setting feats that still wow the crowd to this day. Former stuntman-turned-filmmaker Ric Roman Waugh is a guy who understands that spectacle and loves delivering real action in movies like his latest team up with Gerard Butler, Kandahar. This time out, the director’s hunger for real action gave the man a hell of a story to tell, as Waugh filmed an explosion so huge, it actually shook a nearby airport.
