A good-not-great action film

Rating: Null/10 (16 July 2011)

Sylvester Stallion strikes back with this action-pack film called The Expendables, a movie he not only stared in, but directed it too. the film is about a group of mercenaries who were given a mission to overthrow a dictator in in Vilane.
This film was not great, but it was defenity not terrible, it was a fairly decent made action film that had a lot of action and intensity and a few wise-cracking one liners in there as well. Sylvester Stallon did not do a bad job with the film, but if there's one thing to complain about, it's that a few action scenes at another one of those things where the camera get's a little too close to the action. I could barely see what was going on, I couldn't tell who was fighting who, I tell ya my eyes were spinning so much, I thought I was gonna spin my head around getting dizzy. The jokes were not bad, my favorite joke was (SPOILERS) when Bruce Willis tells Stallion how Arnold Schwarzenegger wants to become president.
The cast members, of course, are spectacular, you got one of the best action pack legends, one of the best, Sylvester Stallion of course, Jason Statham, Jet Li, and even Mickey Rourke. We even get cameos from Bruce Willis, and of course the Governor of the west side of America himself, Arnold Schwarzenegger.
I'm not crazy about this film, but I don't think it's terrible by all means, despite the lousy camera work, this film was a well made action piece, if you're looking for intensity and......actiony(?), this movie will not disappoint you. I give this movie a thumbs up.
