check out the cast for this movie :eek2:

The Expendables (2010)

Wesley Snipes was supposed to be in it as well, but couldn't because of his tax-problemos.

Mickey Rourke was nice in sin city. This got to be an all-out action movie. Im dissapointed if it even has a story :p

If that's not a document type of thing and a basic "make belief" movie...whoa...:eek7:

For one, the biggest "FU" brothers of the industry, Sly and Arnie, who've been taking the piss out of eachother for decades in the SAME movie?!

With the exception of Ben Kingsley and Forest Whitaker all bad actors. Even Statham has done nothing decent since LS&2SB. Transporter 3 was terrible.

Although M. Rourke somewhat gets some cred back for 'The Wrestler' he has been in some bloody awful movies. The worst was with Stallone in the remake of Get Carter.

Yeah, really bad cast if you're looking for an artsy "oh how arth thou" winesipping movie.

With a cast like that its just going to be a boys action movie. And we dont watch them for their amazing acting skills we watch them for big guns, sharp knives and kick-ass moves

If your a Stallone movie fan that's fine. Plenty of action movies out there with better acting imho. I watch plenty of shit movies but I know they're shit and its pure escapism.:p

Doesn't have to be a chick flick drama to make a good film, just believable characters, decent script and good acting.

I don't know, if i feel like an artistic indepth view of the human psyche, i watch the terminator trilogy or demolition man :lol:

Point being, they're not sh*t, they're action movies.

A movie with arnie, sly, etc etc etc, it's bound to be a kick a** movie no matter how you look at it.

Doesn't have to be a "intellectually written plot with twists and sh*t" to make a good action movie.

Guns, explosions, cars, chicks, fights and so forth....it's all that's needed.

Are you joking? Transporter 3 was a perfect formula action movie. Nothing unexpected, more of what you expect. Also Statham has done Crank, which was amazing and you do not mention, and Crank 2 soon :)

If this movie is real, it is clearly an action movie, a quick read of the summary shows that, and if the cast list is correct it should be a very enjoyable one.

Transporter 1 & 2 were good action flicks but 3 was shite, so many continuity errors it was a joke. The russian chick was an ugly Ginger FFS!Yeah, Crank was a laugh even with the terrible script.

When they are as obvious as jumping through a car window, then 5 secs later car window is intact its an issue.:p

Not really, just if you can't shut down your brain for a moment.

I bet you couldn't watch a chuck norris movie without having a continuigasm :D

Of course no one wants sh*t action movies, but action movies can't(or shouldn't) be judged on same basis as some dramatic portrayal of the last days of an infantry soldier in the peruvian hospital.

oO I love how people here are preaching about "real" action movies, and calling this one shit. We hardly know anything about it, yet people are still judging it.

It makes me wonder why I even bothered to post the link.

To be fair Wonk, which we usually don't, calling a movie shite before knowing about it is as valid as calling it "wohoo!" ;)

I actually laughed at reading this thread. God, some people are so sad.

Action != Film Noir. (Sin City doesn't count) (and don't become anal about this, you know what I mean)
