Review of The Expendables (2000) by Tappan M — 25 Aug 2012
I thought it was really good considering I didn't even want to watch it. Yes it has all the lame cliches of action movies but isn't it sort of an ode to that? Though when I think about it more the story was stupid, I mean c'mon you hardly know that girl, now you're just gonna go kill yourself for her, and then he just ditches her at the end? WHAT THE FUCK? Also I found the bit where Stallone blows up the bomb Terry Crews throws into the air RIGHT IN THE DIRECTION OF THE GIRL plain idiotic.
How did he know she wasn't in the general blast radius? Also there wasn't enough of the other guys, it just seems like they're thrown in for the added gimmick, I mean Jet Li is awesome so why does he hardly appear in this?
