Movie Review: The Expendables

[the_alcatraz]

WOW. Loved it. Some actors more developed than others, and Jet Li didn's kiss so much ass as he does in other movies...but the rest were great...Statham and Sly are AWESOME!

Couture was pretty impressive too...

It's a MUST see....the whole gang's back together...even Willis and Arnold make a small appearance

Do yourself a favor and watch it....it's a great all around action flick

 

[Sub-Zero]

i'm gonna see the has been's one of these days. i tried watching the scorpion king with coture in it. was the wors acting i'v ever stomached through. randy ruined the movie upon his first line. hopefully he don't talk in this movie.

Lol you guys(including me) are exactly the type of people Stallone made this movie for. fuck pro movie reviewers.

If a movie is entertaining and has good action then it's gtg. It doesn't have to have a plot worthy of an oscar.

I think I'll go see it tomorrow now.

Thanks for the review.

yeah, anyone who even thinks the word "plot" in this movie deserves death, the way lundgren stomps that guys head in the car like an "insect".

this movie was made for fun not literary theater awards.

stallone not shakespeare

I went to it last night. Story is really weak but the action is what action movies are all about and the big screen sound was just awesome. Im a huge Stallone fan so that about says it all. Worth seeing if you are a huge action fan. If looking for a deep movie don't waste your time.

The local hippie rag that has movie reviews said it was only so-so, which should mean its actually better than that.

A friend of mine saw it when it came out. She said that the story was weak and that the character development was not that great.

I wanted to punch her in the face.

 

[ghettostudmuffin]

Watched. Liked it.

I actually really enjoyed the whole Jason Statham character scenes. I felt like he kinda stole the movie a little.

It was AWESOME to see Dolph doing his thing. He was great imo.

OF course Stallone and everyone was good.

My wife didn't care for it. I told her before we went that she didn't have to go but I was going anyhow. She went, she didn't like it to bad. I did.

Character development? WTF? It's an action flick, not Westside Story or Paper Chase.

Agreed. That's a man's answer

I actually managed to get the gf to see this with me yesterday & it was pretty meh, the dialogue / interaction between most of the action hero actors just seemed pretty contrived / basically shit (like that Arnie / Willis / Stallone scene).

Stallone & Statham to be fair are quite watchable & I wasn't expecting any sort of plot but man considering how good the last Rambo installment actually was as a revived action flick was abit disappointed.

Still, lots of explosions 'n' gore 'n' shit. The cinema is pretty shit atm, nothing decent out. Think the next thing releasing here that looks semi-reasonable is The Town With Affleck, only caught my interest as same director that made this made The Departed.

Its not. Martin Scorcese made The Departed. Ben Affleck directed The Town, along with Gone Baby Gone. Hes actually a pretty great filmmaker, so Im sure The Town will be legit.

I liked it OK.
There was some serious gore!
