After years of unspeakable corruption that concludes with tragedies such as the murder of American hostages and betrayal of foreign policies, and finally recognizing a way out of this terrible mess, the U.S. along with other nations, equally seeking the end of this catastrophe, secretly put together a squad of its highest trained military personnel finally to overthrow the dictator who has caused devastation in South America for over 20 years. The team sets out on its mission to complete the assassination, but with little help from the nations as they try to keep the mission secret. After they realize that there will be no outside help, they rely on their own resources to fight not only the dictator’s army but also the governments that set them up.
PRO REVIEWS
----------------------------------------
"Relentless, often exhilarating film in which actions do the talking and humour is used effectively in the cracks." (Louise Keller: Urbancinefile) ----------------------------------------
"The brain-dead male equivalent of 'Sex and the City 2'" (Lou Lumenick: New York Post) ----------------------------------------
"Expendables is the closest thing to movie Viagra yet invented. It’s reprehensible. It’s stoopid violent. It’s a lot of unholy fun" (Ty Burr: Boston Globe) ----------------------------------------
"Don't spend your time or money on 'The Expendables' (...) This is truly a movie that nobody needs -- gratuitously savage, implausible and sometimes incoherent" (Claudia Puig: USA Today) ----------------------------------------
"'The Expendables' (...) harks back to the days of Rambo and Universal Soldier, when men were men and banana republics could be blown up with impunity.
(Steven Rea: Philadelphia Inquirer) ----------------------------------------
