Just terrible


How they manage to spend so much money on making a B movie that is worse than the B movies its trying to emulate...I do not know.

This film and the first one are embarrassing to watch, glad I watched this one on Netflix and didn't spend any money on it.

The script, plot, acting and action scenes are all terrible. There countless hundreds of soldiers they kill are all the most useless soldiers in the world, most of them are just standing there not even firing at them.

No drama, no suspense, just corny awful cheesy lines that try to hark back to when those lines were used well, but all they do now is show how bad this film is.

If the film is meant to be a comedy, then I guess funny on some sort of sarcastic level, but I don't think its trying to be funny.

The things I did like; the lack of shakey cam / fast editing, and JCVD is a good villain, he was the only character I enjoyed watching.

Well, probably everything went into salaries, because the CG effects were cheap and unwatchable.

Yes pay was probably a big part of the budget. a lot of inflated egos to pay for in this film...

I think these Expendable movies are being made just to keep all these old action stars actors employed. Plus as the years go by, these guys have figured out that the majority of todays movie goers are dumber than a bag of hammers - todays kids eat this sh*t up, thanks to several generations video gamers.
