The Expendables

Last night I watched The Expendables.  It is about a group of mercenaries who are sent to a small island to take out a general.  During a reconnaissance mission they meet a girl who helps them, when they are discovered the girl stays behind and is tortured.  The team returns to the island to rescue her.

This is a typical action movie plot.  Every twist and turn is predicable and pretty much every cliche is there as well.  The movie just has too many super action stars to really do any of them justice.  Mainly there is a lot of bullets flying, knives slicing, and explosions.


If you like predictable explosions and the sound of gunshots, you'll like this movie if not get something else.


IMDB:  Arnold Schwarzenegger did his totally unnecessary cameo for free.
