a huge step up and everything i dreamed of in action films

Rating: 9/10 (21 May 2014)

This film is exactly what the action genre needed with this film overall being lots better then the original expendables. We have the same crew of expendables doing there thing with a few extra awesome helping hands like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, liam hemsworth and chuck Norris. After a death in the group the team is out for revenge against a dangerous leader played by jean Claude vanne damme. This film takes care of what the original messed up as the lulls in the original is gone and replaced with more action and more of the team working together which I wanted in the original. This film starts off with an action scene that trumps anything in the previous film and really set up this awesome action extravaganza. There are some more emotional moments and comedic moments with the epic one liners by especially Schwarzenegger and Willis. Also jean Claude vanne damme owns his role as the villain and he is clearly having fun with his role, but the most awesome part of this film is when Schwarzenegger, Willis, Stallone and a bit of chuck Norris team up and it is every action fans dream and it lives up to it immensely. The only real negatives was the story was a bit weak but it's still a must see if your an action fan.
