"Guardian of the Galaxy" star Dave Bautista has called out a writer who compared his upcoming movie "My Spy" with "Kindergarten Cop".
In the film, the action star plays a hardened CIA operative who finds himself at the mercy of a seemingly innocent nine-year-old girl, having been sent undercover to spy on her family.
The writer, Jason Perlow, took to Twitter, wondering why films are being made in the same vein as Arnold Schwarzenegger's memorable 1990 comedy.
"Why is every muscle bound action movie star compelled to repeat what Schwarzenegger did with 'Kindergarten Cop'? You cannot improve on this seminal classic, The Rock, John Cena, and Dave Bautista," the writer said.
To this, Bautista shot back, saying, "What an ignorant thing to say. Anyway, enjoy being a judgmental prick."
