Review


Not only does "The Expendables" have all the ingredients an action film requires, but combinations and scenes with action overload. Explosions, gun fights, car chases, varying fighting styles, knife fights, body parts flying all over the place; whatever you can ask for it is there. Surprisingly, "The Expendables" makes you laugh, purposely. Who knew Jet Li could be a comedian. Yes, the plot is silly, but honestly, with this much action who the hell cares? The one unavoidable issue is that there are so many big action stars that there will be people who wished their star had more screen-time. At the end of the day, if you're looking for the kick-ass, star-studded action film of the year, you will walk out the movie theater grinning from ear to ear.
