On par with anyone's expectations

Rating: Null/10 (7 October 2010)

This film is about a bunch of professional assassins hired to kill the leader of an island nation.
"The Expendables" has a very simple plot, it's so simple that it almost requires no dialog. As there is almost no dialog, screen time is filled by one fight after another. It seems that there is a fight in every scene, and there needs no reason for a fight. The action is packed, exciting and pumps adrenaline throughout the film. Yet, some violent scenes are excessively gory and unrealistic in a cartoon style, which undermines the credibility of the action. I think "The Expendables" delivers entertainment to action fans, which is what anyone can expect from these action stars.
