NewsFlash - Expendables movies are supposed to be cheesy exploding fun.

Reviewed in the United States on November 11, 2014

Verified Purchase

The Expendables movies are supposed to be cheesy throw-backs to the old action movies. In this they succeed very well. Not much face time as expected for the old crew, which was disappointing because Terry Crews is flat out fun to watch and Dolph makes an awesome grumpy big guy. That's what I enjoyed about the first two movies, the larger than life actors I remember from my youth and the "catch phrases" that came with the action movies.

They aren't suppose to be believable and the dialogue is tongue-in-cheek. Which is why the movies are fun.

Best lines of the movie:
Wesley Snipes' response to why he was locked up "tax evasion", said with an psychotic grin.
Stallone's answer to Statham's query about "what was that?" during the first skirmish. "A large black man in a boat".
although there were lots of others that made me chuckle.

Mel Gibson still has the best "crazy eyes" in the business, evoking Lethal Weapon memories. He's not as fun to watch as Van Damme was, but pretty darn close.

This is the third installment of geriatric warriors against evil. It opens with an amped up body count, explosions and chases. This movie is a bit more reflective, as they reflect that they are past their prime, losing too many and need to assemble a new team. So Stallone jettisons his old comrades and seeks out new ones, not wishing to risk the lives of his team any more. The row of dog tags that are in the plane, and represent lost members weighs on him. It turns out a terrorist who was thought to be dead wasn’t, and the story centers on getting him. They manage to capture him, but in too much of a cliche, Stonebanks (Gibson) spends time talking, which of course is a plot point that means it won’t end well. So assembling his new team, Stallone goes after Stonebanks. And naturally, his old teammates will not abandon him. There is less comedy in this movie compared to the two prior ones, but the Galgo character (Banderas) does provide good comic relief. The last act is a way over the top body count, explosions, fires, and theatrics. To say it is excessive is an understatement. If this is meant to be the last chapter, fine. If there is to be a fourth, then many of them will probably be using mobility scooters. But watching a nice collection of noted movie actors all assembled in an over the top drama, reprising their roles and seeming to have a lot of fun doing it is all right.

Much better than Expendables 2

Reviewed in the United States on November 21, 2020

Verified Purchase

Expendables 2 was a real dud just remaking the first film. In true Hollywood fashion that didn’t stop them from making a third one. The idea was to add more action stars and more explosions. This time Wesley Snipes, Ronda Rousey and Antonio Banderas join the crew while Mel Gibson plays the bad guy with guest appearances by Arnold Schwarzenegger, Harrison Ford, and Kelsey Grammer.

The movie begins with a giant battle scene to rescue Snipes from a foreign prison and then some comedy which is well done. Afterward they ask Snipes why he was locked up and he says tax evasion which is what really happened to him. The jokes continue throughout which showed they didn’t take the movie that seriously.

The story is simple. Gibson is a bad guy the Expendables have history with and they take him down.

Expendables 2 was a poor attempt at a sequel. This one was better.

A Fun Action Film with Some of the Best Names Out There

Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2015

Expendables 3 is a romp through fun. Nobody ever claimed this franchise was for the Mensa folks although I don't see why they wouldn't like it too.

Barney (Sylvester Stallone) is in an op with his team when they see Stonebanks (Mel Gibson) another finding member of the Expendables. Stonebanks had gone rogue and was eventually thought to be dead.

Bonaparte (Kelsey Grammer) tells Barney be will need a younger crew to get Stonebanks. Barney selects a crew of new, up and coming, recruits/wannabes. When the youngsters get themselves captured attempting to capture Stonebanks, the older crew activates to get there kids and Stonebanks.

It's not a movie you'll remember vividly the next day nor is it going to leave you wondering why loose ends haven't been cleaned up. When the movie is over the only thing it leaves room for is Expendables IV.

Better Than The Previous Sequels

Reviewed in the United States on November 21, 2020

Verified Purchase

I actually liked this version better than the two previous sequels. I was surprised that Mel Gibson and Harrison Ford were part of this production and I am glad they made Mr. Gibson the bad guy.

The plot, uncomplicated, easy to follow, goal oriented, it gave each character a purpose for being their, except one exception and that is Antonio Banderas, I know he is was playing the comedy relief, but he was not funny, I found him to be just annoying.

I would tell my friends and family about this movie. It is definitely a guys movie. All that action, explosions, violence, tanks, guns, helicopters, rockets, RPG, and c4. What more could you ask for.

Yes, I know we mustn't forget Ronda Jean Rousey, not only does she add sex appeal but she represents strong women who know how to kick ass; oh, by they way, wow, she actually knows how to act, I am impressed; some people take to acting like breathing, it is second nature for her.

Ok film, bad disc

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 4, 2018

Verified Purchase

I remember watching this in the cinema and it was an ok film, but the discs for this all (I've tried buying a few times from a few places, all first hand so I'm confident it's not second hand scratched disc bad luck) fail about 15 minutes from the end of the movie. The characters are trapped in a tower block, tanks are closing in, and then it freezes. Something is clearly wrong with the manufacture of this film's DVD release.

The old ones are the best. (Actors are great as always).

Just as good as the previous 2 films if you like the previous 2 then you will enjoy this one. Also if you are fans of the leading role actors they are as good in these films as all the other films they have made and starred in. Get ready and enjoy another action packed film.

Dad's Army on steroids?

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 2, 2016

Verified Purchase

Hopefully there won't be an Expendables 4! Not the worst film in the world but I think the idea of an elite team of ageing mercenaries is wearing a bit thin! Adding a new superstar actor to the cast each outing will only work for so long! I am sure all concerned enjoyed making the film,but all involved are capable of much better!

Lots of explosions

Lots of guns and explosions. Its enjoyable but is an excuse for all these actors to be in the same film with little plot.
