This is Stallone's swansong and the reminder why he is the best at what he does

Rating: 10/10 (15 August 2010)

The Expendables...well what can I say...Its a dream come true for all action movie fanatics...A Great all star cast (albeit many were under utilized in their screen time) and a vicious, blood drenched, explosive, testosterone filled, adrenaline pumping bad ass movie that is one of the best pure action movies I have seen in a long time....the thrills, spills, bullets, destruction, mayhem and carnage is bloody fun..also the old 80's style throwback one liner humor signifying male camaraderie is back. With a stellar all time greatest ensemble cast comprising of who's who of action movies and two equally divine cameo appearances, this just does not get any better than this. I will not get into the plot as this is as feeble as it gets but that's fine because who needs a plot when a movie is this much fun to begin with...And what can I say about Stallone...this guy is a God...he is superb...to look the way he looks at 64, doing all this depth-defying stunts at his age with all his medical condition just for the fans, well this is unheard of. He is a great actor of this generation and Kudos to him for this kind of dedication and determination. Also, all the rest of the cast performs admirably lead by Jason Statham & Jet LI, with support from Terry Crews, Mickey Rourke, Dolph Lungdren, Eric Roberts, Randy Coutore & others. This is a movie for the nostalgic action movie buffs...those who have grown up watching Cobra, Rambo, Predator, Terminator etc. and to all the whiners giving this movie negative reviews for lame reasons like too much violence, lack of coherent plot, shaky cam, no character development etc...well I have to say please don't watch a movie when you don't know what to expect from the genre... I mean no offense but If you find this movie not to your liking you should stick to Rom-Coms or Sitcoms...so please don't degrade the work done by a man who has shaped a generation and just sit back and enjoy the mindless annihilation with a bucket of popcorn...I am sure you will enjoy it.
