	Author	Review
United States	Justin Lowe The Hollywood Reporter	"Taut, humorous and attractively packaged, the sequel is both fleet footed and engaging enough to captivate audiences with more than just nonstop action"	POS
United States	Justin Chang Variety	"Redundant, bombastic and cheekily self-aware, 'The Expendables 2' is also savvy enough to supply its own auto-critique"	POS
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"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)"	NEG
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"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)"	NEG
United States	Betsy Sharkey Los Angeles Times	"What gives 'Expendables 2' its charm is the film's unabashed nostalgia for the genre's best B-movie moments"	POS
