Film Review: The Expendables (Spoilers)

Ignore the plot holes a mile wide, the performances (especially Lundgren’s) which should never have been allowed on a small screen, let alone a large one, the absence of character development and ridiculous motivations. It’s a back-to-basics actioner, more fun than most people would care to admit, and even though Sly looks far too tired (acting as well as directing seems to have worn him out), he’s managed to deliver a perfectly good no brainer in a summer largely filled with pretentious garbage. Oh and The Governator is back, accompanied by the best line in the film too…

6/10
