The Expendables 3
Sylvester Stallone's trilogy-making Expendables, which sees the return of himself, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren and Arnold Schwarzenegger. They are joined by another bevy of action movie icons - Wesley Snipes, Antonio Banderas, Harrison Ford and Mel Gibson.
Barney (Stallone), Christmas (Statham) and the rest of the team come face-to-face with Conrad Stonebanks (Gibson). Stonebanks, a co-founder of The Expendables group, subsequently became a ruthless arms trader and someone Barney was forced to kill... or so he thought. Stonebanks is now making it his mission to end The Expendables. Barney decides that he has to fight old blood with new blood, and brings in a new era of team members, recruiting individuals who are younger, faster and more tech-savvy. The latest mission becomes a clash of classic old-school style versus high-tech expertise.

Flicks, Tony Stamp
flicksThe 3rd instalment of this testosterone-heavy franchise improves on its predecessor in at least one way: it capitalizes on its stunt casting, giving Gibson, Ford, Snipes and Grammer actual roles to play. Their screen time is brief, sure, but after all the guests in part 2 were seemingly pushed into shot, handed a gun and told to wing it, it's nice to see them get some stuff to do in this one.
Boom town
Awesome movie. All the 'buffs' on here will say the acting was bad or the script was shyte and those same buffs would get the boom slapped out of them by the buffs in this film. You don't have to think 'i wonder what there trying to say with this scene' it's just boom boom boom you understand and enjoy it no arty guessing involved. FIVE STARS
No Brainer...
If you paid to see the first two, then what are you waiting for?! This is a fun action packed film where the baddies all get the snot beaten outta them, or shot or blown up!! (or all of the aforementioned) No thinking required, just sit back and remember when digital effects didn't exist, and actual stunt men did kick ass action sequences and they blow...
The Extendables
If you made a film that cast every action hero over the last 20 years. Aged them and matched them up with some 'never-before-seen' potential action hero's to be, you would probably give it a four star rating. The Expendables, extends Stallone's and Schwartzenegger's careers for the length on the movie. and the addition of some new blood adds a little...
Variety
pressThis is the sort of numbskull non-entertainment that considers it worthwhile to fly in a martial-arts superstar like Jet Li and have him sit around firing a machine gun, pausing every so often to deliver the most awkward line readings of his career.
Time Out
pressThank the gods of war for Antonio Banderas, who single-handedly steals (and almost saves) the show as a loquacious assassin.
Hollywood Reporter
press[Lacks] imagination, sticking to a conventional action style that is more about the quantity of explosions than nuances of execution.
Empire Magazine
pressHas its cake and shoots it: armed to the nipples with vast action and bulging A-listers, but over-over-blown and overcrowded. See it for Gibson's big-bad.
