Movie Review - The Expendables

Genre: Action
Premise: A team of mercenaries head to South America on a mission to overthrow a dictator.
About: Sylvester Stallone's long-gestating project which he's been trying to get all the biggest action stars of the 80s and 90s in forever. He supposedly asked Van Damme and Seagal to be in the film and they refused. Willis and Ah-nold were supposed to be two of the main characters, but instead agreed to have cameo roles.
Writers: Sylvester Stallone and David Callaham.


Terrible.

[x] What the fuck did I just watch?
[ ] wasn’t for me
[ ] worth the read
[ ] impressive
[ ] genius

What I learned: That someone who can write one of the best movies ever can also write one of the worst.
