Movie: The Expendables 2
Genre: action
Synopsis: The gang from The
Expendables (Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, and
Bruce Willis are back – and this time they added Chuck Norris, Jean-Claude Van
Damme, and Arnold himself. The plot does
not really matter. Jean-Claude leads a
bunch of really bad guys and Sylvester Stallone leads his good guys and the
kick butt (after getting their own kicked a bit).
My two cents: Much better
than the first installment. You just
need to leave any sense of reality behind (such as the idea of 20+ bad guys
with machine guns never actually getting a bullet to hit the good guys) and
enjoy the action. When Chuck Norris
walked into the scene (to the theme from The Good, The Bad and The Ugly), I wanted
to stand up and cheer. It got hard to
keep track of the one-liners the characters kept tossing about in reference to
their older roles. Chuck Norris’
character even told a Chuck Norris joke.
I loved this movie. With any
luck, they will be back for installment 3 – and with expanded roles for Arnold
and Chuck.
