Track Em. Find Em. Kill Em..

Rating: 10/10 (22 August 2012)

The Expendables II is a fantastic action film. It delivers what the first one only hinted at. The film opens up with the Expendables rescuing a Japanese businessman and their old friend Trench. From there we meet the newest Expendable a very young and able kid. Billy the Kid. He's a expert sniper and cool under fire. The team likes him and Barney Ross Treats him like billy is his kid. There is a Clichéd scene where Billy hands in his resignation as this life isn't for him. He goes on one last mission. Mr.Church blackmails the expendables to go and find a crashed air plane that has a valueable safe on board. they are joined by Church's agent Maggie. She has the codes to open the safe. What's inside the safe is the map of a old Russian base where 5 tons of plutonium was buried. They get the map and are ambushed by Jean Villain wonderfully play by Jean Claude Van Damme. His men hold Billy hostage and force them to give up the map. Afterwards they Kill Billy. And The Expendables make this a personal mission. It doesn't matter that the madman has enslaved a whole town and forced the men to dig for the plutonium. It Doesn't matter that he's planning to sell it to the highest bidder. What Does matter is that he kill their friend. So they're going to kill him. When the action gets hot and they're outnumbered they get a assist from an old Friend Booker. I just want to say this. Chuck Norris still has it. Seeing him interact with Stallone and Company was worth the price of the ticket. Along the way Villain's Army outnumbers them and they get help from Mr.Church and Trench. The Cliamax is fast Action packed and you relive the days of your youth watching these guys go to work. It's a great feeling seeing these guys do this. The Film is clichéd in some scenes. But they make it work. In the end to boil it down to it's basic core is this. The Good Guy's against the bad guys. The Good Guys win. With a lot of style hot hardcore action. And Witty one liners. The Expendables II will not win any Oscars. It's not going to change the world or cure cancer. But it'll take you back in time to when these stars were our heroes and the best in the business. This film is going to do what it sets out to do. Entertain you. That's all. Shut your brain off sit back and be prepared to enjoy yourself. If you enjoyed any movies in which these gentlemen starred in. You will enjoy this. If you didn't then This is not the film for you. Stay away then. But for those who are pure action fans. This film was made for you.
