The Expendables


This is the one action junkies from the 80s have been waiting for, for a long long time. Sly Stallone is a generous man; from what he has received over the years, he's giving back with this homage to all things kick-assery.
The Skinny: Sly Stallone heads an all star cast of action heroes for an all out assault on a South American dictator. Joining him is Jason Stathom, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Bruce Willis, Mickey Rourke, Arnie (in a bit role) and their kick ass brethens.
The Helmer: Sly Stallone - Rambo (2008), Rocky Balboa (2006), Rocky IV (1985), Staying Alive (1983), Rocky III (1982), Rocky II (1979), Paradise Alley (1978)
The Casts: Sly Stallone (Barney 'the Schizo' Ross), Jason Statham (Lee Christmas), Jet Li (Yin Yang), Dolph Lundgren (Gunnar Jensen), Eric Roberts (James Monroe), Bruce Willis (Mr. Church), Arnold Schwazenneger (Trench)
The Prediction: Its like a roll-call of ALL the action heroes of the past; a reunion of heavy hitters which includes for the first time in mainstream action cinema Terry Crews who has finally come home to the action genre. Jean Claude Van Damme was invited to join this blood fest but he turned it down to act in his own movie, which sucks as his participation would have completed it. Forget the story line, forget the plot, just sit back and enjoy the mayhem.
