Movie Night: The Expendables.

Review #047: The Expendables.

Review
It's a bunch of action stars (old and new) all together to make a movie that seems to be more about action than plot. And that's okay. Anyway this film is...enjoyable to watch. Stallone wanted to reunite all of the action heroes, and he succeeds. The film isn't an award winner, but the film is enjoyable with the fun and action. It doesn't have much acting skills, but it tries to just be what it wants, an action movie. It doesn't care what happens in terms of response, it just wants to be its own film (That will get a sequel soon), and it works.

Overall, I give it 7 out of 10 Stars.
