First Trailer For ‘The Expendables 2′ – Starring Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis & Jason Statham
Dec 15th
Lionsgate has unleashed this testosterone-filled debut trailer for Simon West’s upcoming action-hero blockbuster ‘The Expendables 2.’ Starring Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Terry Crews, Jet Li, Chuck Norris, Liam Hemsworth and Jean-Claude Van Damme, ’The Expendables 2′ is scheduled for a August 17th, 2012 release date.
The Expendables are back and this time it’s personal… Barney Ross (Sylvester Stallone), Lee Christmas (Lee Statham), Yin Yang (Jet Li), Gunnar Jensen (Dolph Lundgren),Toll Road (Randy Couture) and Hale Caesar (Terry Crews) — with newest members Billy the Kid (Liam Hemsworth) and Maggie (Yu Nan) aboard — are reunited when Mr. Church (Bruce Willis) enlists the Expendables to take on a seemingly simple job. The task looks like an easy paycheck for Barney and his band of old-school mercenaries. But when things go wrong and one of their own is viciously killed, the Expendables are compelled to seek revenge in hostile territory where the odds are stacked against them. Hell-bent on payback, the crew cuts a swath of destruction through opposing forces, wreaking havoc and shutting down an unexpected threat in the nick of time — six pounds of weapons-grade plutonium; enough to change the balance of power in the world. But that’s nothing compared to the justice they serve against the villainous adversary who savagely murdered their brother. That is done the Expendables way….

The Expendables Review – A Fast Paced, Action Packed Thrill Ride
Aug 4th
To put it simply if you like your films profound and thought provoking The Expendables is not for you, yet if truckloads of bullets, explosions, bombs, shotguns, chase scenes, cheesy one liners and an ample amount of blood and guts are up your alley, this is a must! I went in to the screening pretty much expecting The Expendables to be a fast-paced, action packed thrill ride, and you best believe it delivered. In some aspects it surpassed my expectations, in a guilty kind of way the film cracked me up, some of the jokes and the down right ballsiness of the action had me in stitches.
The Expendables follows a group of mercenaries hired to infiltrate the fictional South American island country of Vilena and overthrow its ruthless dictator and the corrupt former CIA operative (Ed Richards) who pull his strings. At first they turn down the assignment due to the fact that they believe they will be sacrificing themselves to save the CIA embarrassing headlines. Yet after Stallone meets the general’s beautiful rebel daughter, Sandra (Giselle Itie), he rekindles his connection to a righteous cause in favour of the almighty dollar. Much has been made of the cast assembled, it is truly a dream team of action stars with Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Steve Austin, Randy Couture, Terry Crews, Mickey Rourke, Bruce Willis, Eric Roberts and Arnold Schwarzenegger featured.
The much talked about scene with Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger was a particular highlight, the punch line at the end gained rapturous applause from me and the audience – I’m sure a couple mangasm’s were ensuing. Another standout scene was when the ultra charismatic Mickey Rourke, recalled the moment in Bosnia when he knew his soul had dried up. His character gave the film a slice of tranquillity the other characters lacked. As much as I enjoyed The Expendables, it did have it’s flaws, there was pretty much zero character development, parts of the acting were bad -real REAL bad, there were a number of moments were I couldn’t understand what people were saying. The plot was pretty light as well, it basically served just to support the action sequences, also randomly I was distracted by Stallone’s eyebrow’s – what in the holy name of ass has happened to them! Dodgy eyebrow‘s aside, I had a blast, it thoroughly tickled my nostalgia bone and was downright big, bold, testosterone filled fun!
7.8/10
The Expendables is in cinemas August 13, 2010. My Interviews with the cast are coming next week.
Another Trailer For Sylvester Stallone’s The Expendables
Jul 1st
The cast alone is the definition of badass – Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Randy Couture, Steve Austin, Terry Crews, Mickey Rourke, Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny Trejo. It looks like a complete throwback to the action flicks of the 80’s (a guilty pleasure of mine). If you like your films profound and thought provoking this is not for you, yet if bullets, explosions, bombs, guns and chase scenes are up your alley, this is a must!
