Review of Soldiers of Fortune (2012) by Mark B — 17 Jul 2012

Just terrible...lol. It's pretty much The Expendables for B-movie stars and has-beens. Sadly there is no Cuba Gooding Jr. here. I'm wondering if the production of this movie interfered with the production of Gooding Jr.

's other B-movie, Red Tails? Either way, this one is just terrible.
