If The Expendables was a pasta, it would be testosteroni. The film's major draw, in that it features virtually every major action star from the last thirty years, is also what keeps it from being a fully satisfying movie. With so many characters in the mix there isn't enough time for any of them to develop or, you know, have more than two lines. The plot, what little there is, is somewhat reminiscent of the last Rambo movie. But let's face it, no one goes to see a movie like this for plot, character development and/or narrative arc. You go to see stuff blow up real good and, trust me, they got that part covered.

Ha! Great rating. And that is pretty much exactly what I thought it would be like from the previews.
