The Movie : The Expendables: By Sly Stallone. (your Opinions) by kobikwelu(m): 12:57pm On Aug 27, 2010
just recently watched the movie, the expendables,

i really must say, it felt  good seeing all those age old action stars all bunched up in one movie

the movie boasts of excessive violence and weak dialogue though

but a very high budget,

NLers, your opinions

That is the correct formula for action movies.

Th movie is cool though I dont like Dolph lundgren's role in the movie . I was expecting to see more of Mickey rourke(toole) in the movie as well and I don't like stone cold (my all time favorite wrestler) playing a villain in the movie and getting hiss ass punched by Randy couture ( another crazy wrestler though) , Anyway the movie is cool . Jason statham is at his best and i like the way stallone and statham get at each other . cool movie wink

i liked the whole mix of actors good action scenes though not as intense as , crank 2 but still pretty good action flick too ba d arnold was just a cameo , jet li was awesome too but statham was the best

great flick although we can see that some of these actors have well passed their time to be doing action movies.

btw what was wrong with Jean Claude Van Damme when he turned down the offer to play in this movie?! WTF!

I prefer THE A-TEAM a little bit. THE EXPENDABLES was lacking seriously in terms of story. But I liked Terry Crews' gun in the film. wink

the movie is not a direct action movie,

its just meant to give us that nostalgic feeling of the glory days of old


the writing was not that cool, but i felt 10-15 younger watching my childhood action heroes,

my best scene was the arnold cameo,

arnold: lets have dinner sometimes

sly:when?

arnold: a thousand years

sly: too soon
cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy

for me, the movie was just too nostalgic

BTW how cud vandamme opt out (bad belle)
his prescence would have made it a complete cast,


but mehhnnn these guys don old oooo

Nice one but are you not pissed about Dolph lundgren's role in the movie ? and who do you think is better between him and Jet lee thought he almost killed lee. Statham was the best guy there . His moves're hot and I was expecting to see more of Mikey rourke as well . I was expecting to see more of jet lee and dolph lungren too , and my dear stone cold was a villain sad sad

Seems like Jet Li's favorite line in the movie is "I need more money for my family". cheesy
Re: The Movie : The Expendables: By Sly Stallone. (your Opinions) by kobikwelu(m): 7:37pm On Sep 07, 2010

I WANT MY 10 DOLLARS BACK FOR WATCHING PROBABLY THE WORST MOVIE IN HISTORY. THIS MOVIE WAS JUST AS BAD AS THE TRANSFORMER MOVIES OR WORSE, AS BAD AS THE MINDLESS, BRAINLESS 80's (AND 90's) ACTION FLICKS THAT WE USED TO BE MESMERIZED BY WHEN WE WERE KIDS.
IF ONLY I HAD SPENT THAT MONEY ON INCEPTION cry cry cry cry cry cry cry, TOO BAD ITS NO LONGER IN THEATRES CHAI, OMA SE O cry cry
Re: The Movie : The Expendables: By Sly Stallone. (your Opinions) by kobikwelu(m): 11:50am On Sep 08, 2010
^^^^^

thats the point for the movie,

a nostalgic point at that

if not, how can u explain a movie that has rambo star, terminator star, die hard star, dolf lundgren? too bad vandamme was missing
Re: The Movie : The Expendables: By Sly Stallone. (your Opinions) by JeSoul(f): 9:00pm On Sep 08, 2010
Bad belle people like David abeg move to one side jare  grin

The movie had weak everything - plot, dialogue etc . . . but just seeing all those legends in one place was more than worth it  cool
Re: The Movie : The Expendables: By Sly Stallone. (your Opinions) by davidif: 10:16pm On Sep 08, 2010
yeah, but i could have streamed it online, not spend 10 dollars shocked shocked on it.
Re: The Movie : The Expendables: By Sly Stallone. (your Opinions) by polyphasic: 11:46am On Sep 09, 2010

Re: The Movie : The Expendables: By Sly Stallone. (your Opinions) by obinna5000(m): 11:52am On Sep 09, 2010

Re: The Movie : The Expendables: By Sly Stallone. (your Opinions) by Darray(m): 9:17pm On Sep 09, 2010
Although it is weak in dialogue and stuffs,but seeing all my action heroes in one piece just did it for me.

I like the movie. cheesy
Re: The Movie : The Expendables: By Sly Stallone. (your Opinions) by sweetguy10(m): 12:09am On Sep 10, 2010
Yeah statham was the best in that movie and I'm very disappointed in Lundgren's role in the movie . Jet lee is not in his best in the movie i dont like that either .

the sentiments behind the movie weigh in tons of Gold.

i bet you will not get to see an awe inspiring moment like the Church Scene where you had Sly, Willie and wait for it, the Gov himself, Arnold! awesome!

can you picture a scene like that  in Nollywood?
nope!
they all act together for 100k/role.

but really, why did Van Damme turn down a role in that cast? why?
Re: The Movie : The Expendables: By Sly Stallone. (your Opinions) by bjmighty(m): 6:11pm On Oct 30, 2010
That movie is classic. I mean d cast is classic. Did it for me. The church scene is my best. I love dat scene.
