as much as i love richard roeper, he missed the point with this movie. its supposed to be a standard action movies 80s style. it was the whole reason this was made.

you guys gotta admit this film could have been way better. Too much time was focused on Statham and Stallone. Rourke felt kinda wasted. And the cliches kind of got irritating. The "You and I are the same" speech was annoying. I enjoyed it. Don't get me wrong. B- in my opinion. I love action movies. Just could've been better. Besides, it's Roeper's opinion. Seriously.

SPOILER ALERT

plus it wouldn't have hurt to have killed off a couple more important characters

God, I hate Jason Statham!!!!

Stallone should have just made Rambo 5 like he was going to do! In Rambo 2 he said that an Expendable is like someone that you don't miss at a party. That is exactly the same way that I feel about Big Barney Ross in The Expendables. Rambo would kick Barney's ass! What kind of an action hero name is Barney anyway.

What the fuck, the movie could be a B- but you got to admit it´s fucking great,explosions,stabbing,I love it,despite of "being there done that",it´s Stallone you have to give him some credit it´s rambo, he managed to put film stars,legends of the UFC, a wrestling legend,stars already dead (Mickey Rourke,Dolph Lundgren,Bruce Willis (excuse me)),Terry Crews(great), hell he even managed to nudge the former governor of California(how great is that is old buddy ahah) LOVE IT.

I think your looking into things, but I fail to even see how that's relevant to my comment

@AKenjiB With all respect

After watching the secound time...

This movie clearly points out against the palestinians.

Pause the movie at 30:14 and you will see clearly a palestinian flag on the soldier.

Maybe thats why hollywood appointed the israeli producer Avi Lerner to do this?

You can see many examples... its really disgusting and sublime propaganda by Hollywood.

General Garza is very similar to "Gaza". But i lost totally lost respect for this movie
