A Very good bad film

Rating: 7/10 (28 October 2012)

The acting is more wooden than a tree house, the plot as believable as the fake moon landing theory and the action more over the top than the peak of Everest. Yet where else will you see the muscles from Brussels, the Terminator, Rambo, Chuck Norris and someone who wants to die hard.
For those who loved eighties action films this is a 1985 cake transported in a time machine right into the 2012 and thrown directly into your face.
By modern standards this film is bad, way bad, and during the action scenes you can almost the see the bad guys being re-spawned as truck load upon truck load get wiped out by Rocky and his side kicks. In today's post 9-11 such mindless violence might be considered insensitive. But throw in any call of duty game and you'll see it's just fulfilling a need that has moved from films to computer games and now with the Expendables 2 is right back on our screens.
Here's hoping the third film will be just as bad as the first two!
