| PRO REVIEWS |
----------------------------------------
"Taut, humorous and attractively packaged, the sequel is both fleet footed and engaging enough to captivate audiences with more than just nonstop action" (Justin Lowe: The Hollywood Reporter)
----------------------------------------
"Redundant, bombastic and cheekily self-aware, 'The Expendables 2' is also savvy enough to supply its own auto-critique" (Justin Chang: Variety)
----------------------------------------
"Like the 2010 original, The Expendables 2 is all sound and fury signifying nothing, when at the very least it should add up to big, dumb fun (...) Rating: ** (out of four)"
(Peter Travers: Rolling Stone)
----------------------------------------
"There's some comedy in there, too, intentional – mostly. As a poignant study of the ageing process, it's on a rough par with 'The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel.' For 'The Expendables 3', they might want to consider enlisting Bill Nighy, Tom Wilkinson and Judi Dench (...) Rating: ** (out of five)" (Peter Bradshaw: The Guardian)
----------------------------------------
"What gives 'Expendables 2' its charm is the film's unabashed nostalgia for the genre's best B-movie moments" (Betsy Sharkey: Los Angeles Times)
