Category: Movie
Genre: Action
Director: Sylvester Stallone
Writer: Dave Callaham, Sylvester Stallone.
Producer: Millenium Films, Nu Image Films, Rogue Marble,

Barney Ross (Sylvester Stallone) leads the highly skilled mercenary group called "Expendables", which involves knife enthusiast Lee Christmas(Jason Statham), Asian martial arts expert Yin Yang (Jet Li), heavy weapons specialist Hale Caesar (Terry Crews), demolitionist Toll Road (Randy Couture) and a loose-cannon sniper Gunner Jensen (Dolph Lundgren). The group was commissioned by a mysterious Mr. Church (Bruce Willis) to assassinate the merciless dictator of a small South American island.
For action? Yes.. I can recommend it. For storyline? I don't think so. I had fun with the cameo of Bruce Willis. I pretty don't much like Jet Li's role here. I think there is something lacking from the storyline or some of their dialogues. Like it could use some revamp and make it a little bit cool. But, props for Stallone for being in the scene even though he is already 64. ;) The movie could have been better, though... if they placed a little depth. But, well if you just want testosterone filled movie.... watch this. and reminisce over the come back of fave popular cast brought into one film.
