The Expendables

This Passed Tuesday (Aug 24, 2010) I went and did a Double Feature at the Movie theater
First film that was screened was Sylvester Stallone's The Expendables.
So Part I go!

The Expendables

what would happen if you put all the great action stars past and present in one movie?
you get the Expendables!!

I wanted to see this becasue I grew up with alot of these guys kicking
ass solo but to see them all in one movie together is like having the planets align!
it is something that comes along once in a life time. When I went to see this it
was a sold out crowd by the time the lights went down and it started.
The movie itself had a quick start and suttle opening titles with very non
intrusive letting but this one gets straight to the action.
It has great music almost classic action movie music through out pulse
pounding when it needs to be and dramatic when it needs to be and there
was even some country thrown at a couple of points which makes you smile.
The scene with Arnold alone was worth the price of admission it was awesome.
The jokes alone in that one scene made me laugh as he and Stallone's character
trade barbs back and forth it was just perfect.
Also the relationship between Stallone's character and Statham's was great
also with Jet Lee's and everyone else for that matter, you did get that feeling
that that these guys all worked together and were pretty much a team.
No one felt like they stood out from the other you could see them all as a cohesive
unit.
Even Mickey Rourke was great especially when he tells Stallone the story
from his past it was greatly delivered, he keeps proving how amazing he is.
Eric Roberts is also a good villain he was very cold and was very well done as the
ruthless "Mastermind" type of villain.
In the end this is the Quintessential action movie. Guns, girls, amazing action,
stunts and fights. Also there is humor it was very funny and even had some
soon to be classic one liners and all that it was hilarious when it wanted to be
I thought it was basically perfect well acted, filmed everything.
If you love action, you'll love this!
