: The Expendables
Decent actioner, a bit of a throw-back to 80s action movies, with tons of huge older stars though most aren’t much more than cameos. I liked the atmosphere of the film, the cast, and a lot of the shoot-em-up action was excellent, but the film’s 30 minutes too long and the plot is far too simple. (Basically, it’s mercenaries hired to kill an island nation’s dictator.) With such a simple plot, when you get to the end you say, “What was the point of all that?” and “That’s it?” Go for the cast and don’t expect much and you’ll be pleased.
