Best violent action in 10 years

Rating: Null/10 (5 September 2012)

They don't make them like this anymore.
After the PG13 snooze fests such as The Dark knight rises and the even more awful bloodless humorless remake of Total Recall and all the bloodless superhero movies that is mostly cgi and the boring bloodless Bourne movies, it is nice with some old school action with some real ass kicking where people actually bleed and stabbing and blowing limbs off is allowed.
That combined with big explosions, Sly, Arnie and Bruce standing together and literally blowing people to bits, funny oneliners and great humor in the few scenes without action, makes The Expendables 2 R-rated fun at its best.
The only letdown is JCVD as the badguy. He was a disappointment. Even his fancy kicking wasn't as good as in Universal Soldier etc. They should have found a better actor for the part of Villain, yeah that's his characters name.
