Many years have past since some of these guys were at their peak and they certainly having spent that time in acting classes. Dolph Lundgren wins my vote for the worst performance, just don't tell him I said that.

I haven't seen all that many 80's action films that The Expendables may be a throwback tribute to so perhaps I'm not amongst the audience likely to enjoy this film. A large part of the film is shot in the dark, and it does makes it a little difficult to work out which beefcake action star is talking trash or more likely shooting at an other. The plot is simple, no problems with that. Statham's girlfriend issue brings no value to the film or character and is a see-through attempt to add some 'character development' somewhere, anywhere. When Jean Claude van Damme turns down a role citing lack of substance to a character you know you are in trouble.

There are some nice touches in the film, the short scene with Stallone, Schwarzenegger and Willis being worth watching the film for. Schwarzenegger commenting that Stallone 'loves playing around in the jungle' certainly made me chuckle. Also, wrestling stars Stone Cold and Randy Couture going head to head at the end was a treat for sports fans.

The Expendables is what it is, an over the top action film, definitely nothing more and probably even a little less.

Sylvester Stallone. Jason Statham. Jet Li. Mickey Rourke. Terry Crews. Stone Cold Steve Austin. Bruce Willis. Arnold Schwarzenegger. Dear reader, though you would be wrong, it is not ignorant of you to assume that what I am about to review isSylvester Stallone. Jason Statham. Jet Li. Mickey Rourke. Terry Crews. Stone Cold Steve Austin. Bruce Willis. Arnold Schwarzenegger. Dear reader, though you would be wrong, it is not ignorant of you to assume that what I am about to review is the latest Old Spice commercial.

The names mentioned above are, in fact, the entire advertising campaign of "The Expendables." In posters, in trailers, in interviews, that is all you hear mentioned, asked, and promoted. Never before in movie history has there been a bigger opportunity to fabricate the most epic action movie of all time. And never before has there been such a more embarrassing failure to seize such an opportunity.

The producers of "The Expendables" may have been so busy casting our action heroes that they ended up forgetting to hire a credible writer and director. But no worries, because good 'ol Stallone himself has volunteered to fill those empty, very essential roles.

My only problem with the film is that in some scenes, you have no idea what's going on at all, and supposedly the audience is being told to see it as "The good guys are killing the bad guys" I didn't really like that. But overall, it was a great film and i'm looking forward to The Expendables 2. Expand

I wouldn't give a bad rating for this movie and despite its mistakes, I found it very entertaining. The action scenes are superb and most of the characters are interpreted by famous actors, so I would say, if you like action movies, watch it.

Although the story is somewhat minimalist and the characters aren't too engaging most of the time, the movie makes up for it with fast, bloody, explosive action scenes - the highlight being the extensive adrenaline rush that makes the film's last big sequence. The best stuff comes from the three primary stars - Stallone, Statham and Li, with Statham's brutal skills with a knife being my favorite. It's a satisfying, steroidal firework of hard-as-nails shoot-outs and fisticuffs, and will easily sate your appetite for violence and heroic mayhem on more than one occasion. Expand

You don't need to be intelligent to make a film like The Expendables that caters to lesser minds. A group of action heroes with some entertaining action sequences is a sure box office success but how many more films are they going to make like this just for the sake of money.

We don't need, or want, to see more of the same crap. A "homage" to 80s and 90s action films. Yeah right, that's what they want you to believe and that's what the filmmakers justify as a good movie. The Expendables is just as modern as the movie adaptation of The A-Team. Plot and funny dialogues, or memorable one-liners, are nowhere to be found.

Sylvester Stallone doesn't get to hog the screen just because he's the director when there's a group of A-listers starring in the same film who, compare to Stallone, happens to take the back seat. A film that stars Bruce Willis, who's only in the movie for like 2 minutes. Mickey Rourke may not be participating in the "epic" action sequences but his performance outshines the whole cast. How can he star in a whack job of a movie?

We've moved on from the 80s and 90s, films standards are higher now. Haven't you heard of a saying "We can't live in the past!" Stallone, you're not Rambo anymore. A film starring a group of big named actors should hit harder but nowadays, they mostly don't. Don't waste your time or money on this crap.

It truly hurts me saying it, but the movie sucks. What looked like an homage to the 1980s-1990s action flicks with a dream cast turns out to be a mountain of disappointment in this plot-less, characterless, humorless pseudo homage. Hell!!It truly hurts me saying it, but the movie sucks. What looked like an homage to the 1980s-1990s action flicks with a dream cast turns out to be a mountain of disappointment in this plot-less, characterless, humorless pseudo homage. Hell!! Even the action scenes are horrible!! A film shouldn't be a prisoner of it's own genre. An action film genre does not excuse a poor script, just as an horror film genre does not excuse flat and uninteresting characters. Defending an action film that has no story by saying "all that matters are the action scenes" in one of the most widespread fallacies. Take a Die Hard, or a Bourne film. The movies are great because the action scenes are great but TIED TOGETHER by a good when not great story. Which is why The Expendables cannot get any grade higher than 1 by my standards. The only semi-developed character is Statham's (and I didn't care, it was just so flat and boring), and the rest is pretty much useless. Which is a shame when you see that a movie such as Sin City manages to introduce you to up to 12 memorable characters in 2 hours, and The Expendables fails to even make you like one in 1 and 1/2 hour. In total, both villains must have a consolidated screen time of 6 minutes, which isn't much, especially when you add how flat and boring they are. You do not understand them, you don't like them, you don't fear them, you don't even dislike them. You simply couldn't care less about them. Rourke's emotional moment that is supposed to be the pivot of the film comes out of nowhere and falls flat. As for Stallone motivations... And to make even things worse, you don't even believe that they are a bunch of friends used to fighting together. Couture's pseudo-funny moment about his ears falls flat too, and so does the buddy effect.// The script is so dull it looks like it didn't even care about it's own credibility. I didn't buy for a second the whole dictatorial mini-state that pops out of nowhere. And last but not least: the action scenes: THEY AREN'T EVEN GOOD!!!! The editing is so erratic you can't even enjoy the fights! All you see are 10 frame long close-ups of body parts moving and probably hitting other body parts, cut every once in a while by a wide angle 15 frame sequence shot. Couture's fight against the villain's lieutenant is not interesting, the main villain's death is bad borderline ridiculous. And they blow up. In conclusion, I'd say that the premise of the film is what killed it: by wanting to put too much, you end up with nothing. Expand

It was meant to be a B-movie at best, a collection of over-muscled actors and expensiveOnce he'd gathered his impressive cast, Sylvester Stallone didn't have to do too much to please the audience that would flock to The Expendables. It was meant to be a B-movie at best, a collection of over-muscled actors and expensive explosions in some cheap and exotic location that, when you squint, could pass for the jungles of Rambo II. But the beauty of good B-movies was always that they were efficient, putting together a tight plot that included as many action scenes as possible and never bothered with actor egos or, well, acting. The Expendables, though, is a bloated mess, a bunch of guys past their prime punching and kicking each other and pretending its for our benefit, when its really just one last self-congratulatory hurrah. The giant list of beefy male names is the major draw of The Expendables, but it's also what kills it. A movie about Stallone and Statham's lead characters kicking ass and taking names in a foreign country might have gone somewhere, but the movie is utterly overstuffed, making room for a Lundgren vs Li fight scene, an entire subplot about Randy Couture's cauliflower ear, and worst of all, a 10-minute Mickey Rourke monologue in which he looks mournfully into a mirror, makes up an absurd story about his heartbreak on a previous mission, and silently cries. All of these will make for hilarious YouTube clips in the coming months, but they're frustrating to watch in context as a movie with actual potential constantly kneecaps itself because the director and the cast had no idea when to give it a rest. Is The Expendables the manliest movie of the summer? Probably-- it is ridiculously violent, male strength without being too homoerotic, and treats women as pure, perfect beings who exist to be rescued. That kind of old-school machismo is missing from most modern action movies, and fans of old-school Stallone and Lundgren and company will likely flock to the Expendables with their bros, ready to watch the blood and guts fly. But if you were old enough to love Rambo III un-ironically the first time around, you're way too old now to be fooled by the dull and desperate Expendables. Expand

This is a fine example on what could happen when an actor (Sylvester Stallone) directs a movie.

There are some positive things about this movie, and one of these is that there are a good amount of action sometimes, but not often. There are also some unique scenes in this movie, but not many. It also got some funny stuff, and I really enjoyed the action in the ending. But The Expendables doesn't got as much action as I thought it would have, the actors just had boring conversations. The Expendables also got a terrible story.

The Expendables is on the cliff to fall down into the deep black hole where all the bad movies are, and it just went down!

The Expendables get a 3,5/10

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. An awesome lineup makes for a nonstop action classic with this movie. I am not a big fan of Jason Statham though he did a great job as a tough guy, true to form. Appearances by Willis and Schwarzenegger were a nice touch as well. The storyline was so so for me though it was never boring. The violence was over the top which is to be expected in a movie of this type, but did not deter from the story.
I give this movie an 8.

Há quem goste de se divertir com filmes meia boca, que geralmente são feitos para encher salas de cinema e servir de mini-clip no youtube. O problema é que as vezes a obra - se é que podemos chamá-la assim, se leva muito a serio, o que joga no lixo toda a oportunidade que eles tinham de usar tal proposta como um desculpa. Fora todo o potencial que é jogado fora.

Aqui temos um casting interessante e, mesmo que seja focado na popularidade, com uma direção boa o mesmo poderia ir longe - coisa que não acontece. Sylvester Stalone exibe toda sua habilidade em malabarismo como um cineasta e demonstra todas suas habilidades aqui.

A cinematografia é uma bagunça; o enredo é mais confuso do que deveria ser para a sua simplicidade; os personagens são totalmente esquecíveis e vivem de falas clichês para impressionar garotos na puberdade, fora a tentativa imensamente falha de desenvolvimento dos mesmos, o que joga fora toda rixa final entre o líder e o ex integrante. Enfim, esse filme é uma perda de tempo e toda insistência em vê-lo será em vão.

DawdlingPoetNov 28, 2021
This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is an action/adventure film, with some comedy elements (some intended and perhaps some not so much!) with themes including rescue attempts, dictatorships and torture. Unsurprisingly, it isn't an especially plot heavy film (thats an understatement - I could barely follow the plot most of the time). Its a pretty basic watch, with the cast and the action scenes being the main draw.

I thought it was quite amusing, in how the various action stars interact with each other and I thought it was perhaps a little ironic, at the least, that Bruce Willis' character is the (holier than thou?) Mr. Church and the various group members of 'The Expendables' meet him in an actual church. Suffice to say, I doubt those who worked on the film took it entirely seriously. There is very definitely a strong element of cheese present, which also didn't surprise me. This is very much testosterone heavy, although the cast aren't exactly spring chickens. There is some amusing dialogue present, I'd go so far as to say its semi-witty but only in parts, not all the way through. There are also some nice landscape shots present, so it could be a worse film I suppose. The film starts with action but after the first couple of scenes, the plot pace seemed really quite slow, which surprised me. There are the usual elements, including various macho action guys, some 'buxom ladies' and so on.

Cast wise, there are quit a lot of well known stars, mostly those known for their parts in other action films, including Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Steve Austin, Mickey Rourke and Arnold Schwarzenegger (although he doesn't appear on screen for long). Stallone appeared, to me, to be the oldest and perhaps least credible of the lot of them.

As far as the ladies are concerned, there is Charisma Carpenter (who played Cordelia in the 90s US drama show Buffy The Vampire Slayer) and Giselle Itie, who plays Sandra. I also note that Gary Daniels is credited purely as 'The Brit' - its nice to know our part of the world isn't entirely overlooked, although Brits are usually typecast as villains rather than good guys. I can't honestly remember the character, it must have been a short lived role.

The music used is pretty standard action film fare, with some ominous, dour sounding incidental music, which builds up to a crescendo of sorts. It did feel a little distracting at times but overall not especially bad. I couldn't help but feel like it was a bit forced - the age of the cast definitely worked against them as far as credibility is concerned. I feel a bit bad saying that but thats what I thought anyway. Having said that, of course it isn't the sort of film you watch purely expecting credibility, realism, an intricate plot and so on.

Content wise, the film features strong violence, some is fairly comical but it may disturb some people. There are scenes featuring relatively bloody violence and explosions are shown, with injured people obviously being a consequence. There is very strong language present too, as you may expect, plus a few moderate sexual references. Drugs are referred to during the film, although we're only shown people using tobacco, there are no graphic scenes of drug taking (thats obviously excluding tobacco, as I say). The film could seem somewhat intense to some, perhaps younger, people, due to the action/violence, although the tone is mostly relatively light hearted (thankfully). The film has been given a 15 rating in the UK, although I believe there's an extended version available on DVD/Blu-Ray, which has been given an 18 rating, due to additional strong violence and extra strong language.

Overall, this was an easy watch. It was fairly amusing at certain parts, while being pretty cliched and predictable but then I suppose I pretty much expected that. The cast is what made me want to see it and they did relatively ok, although I can only imagine that the credibility of their characters must descend strongly downwards during the two sequels this film has spawned. As action films go, this isn't what I'd think of as one of the worst of its type but neither is it one that would likely stay in my mind for any length of time - if I had to describe it in a word, that word would likely be diverting.

The action scenes are diverting, it is amusing in places (whether intentionally or not) and I've seen worse films of this type but on the other hand, it is definitely cheesy/cliched and fairly predictable, with the typical 'damsel in distress' and so on. The credibility of the characters I couldn't help but bring in to question and the plot appeared to me to be to be very thin. Still, it provided some entertainment and I liked that it didn't seem to take itself very seriously, so if this appeals to you then it may be worth a watch and if not then don't bother - thats my advice.

The Expendables is surprisingly a boring movie that fills with weak performances and weak dialogue, action sequence that are mostly make me dizzy with all the too many cuts here and there, a main story that aren't that interesting andThe Expendables is surprisingly a boring movie that fills with weak performances and weak dialogue, action sequence that are mostly make me dizzy with all the too many cuts here and there, a main story that aren't that interesting and exciting, and some wasted main characters, Stallone put money into this, he direct the film, he co-wrote the film, but it doesn't appear that he really wanted to be in the film, Statham wanted to having fun in this movie and so do the rest of the cast, sure there still some cool shot and fight technique, ok sequences, badass Jason Statham scene has to be made and it works, i really like the two big action star cameo sequence, overall all cast performance was not terrible but just weak and not that good except Jason Statham again being Jason Statham and that's always be a good thing, and some production design, i guess?, The Expendables is also very bland, it's weak, and it's the least i expected for an action movie with this star studded and if they did all justice plus a proper story, performance, and action, it will works easily, but they wasted it all and it's super disappointing, The Expendables is surprisingly pretty awful.
