Default The Expendables

Saw it tonight and I LOVED IT.


Not since Stallone's "RAMBO" has there been this much carnage in a movie.
Instead of "Rambo's" .50 cal shredding, you have a team of specialists (knives, guns, martial arts...BOMBS) that systematically take out an island.

Closest thing to what we all grew up watching...

IT ROCKS!!!


100% pure adrenaline, to quote another great action movie.



LOVED IT!!!!!

Very entertaining movie. Statham's knife antics were cool and I want that shotgun that Terry Crewes had!

Yeah -- hard to imagine anything topping the Minigun from "Predator" or "T2" but I think they did!

Saw it. Not impressed, boring blurry shaky action scenes, absolutely terrible script. The short appearances by arnold and bruce willis were pointless.

What exactly were you expecting out of a Stallone directed star-riddled action movie?

Just saw this last night.

Bad plot = AWESOME MOVIE.
It seems they couldn't let any sort of plot get in the way of the action. Very enjoyable, and exactly what I expected. Lots of carnage, action, and gore.

I saw it. Thought it was prety sick. Great action sequences and Terry Crews' AA-12 was kick-ass!!!!

thanks for the model of the gun. Time to do some research on that baby.
