  • From the star of Rocky, Rambo, and The Italian Stallion

  • Comes the only 80's action movie to come out in 2010:

  • The Expendables.

  • Before the release of the watered-down PG-13 sequel

  • revisit the R-rated movie that has all the explosions, guns, and testosterone you crave

  • And all the plotty overcomplicated backstory you don't.

  • "Remember that time we was up in Bosnia? We took down them Serb bad boys while our guys

  • were getting chopped up all around us --"

  • No one cares! Just shoot a bunch of people already!

  • Ahh, that's better.

  • Meet The Expendables, a mercenary gang of aging movie stars brought together for one

  • last paycheck.

  • Thrill as the heroes of your youth team up, without nearly enough screen-time to go around,

  • Featuring hours worth of Statham and Stallone

  • But only 2 minutes of Willis and Schwarzenegger.

  • He... won't be back.

  • Instead of the all-star brawl you were promised on the poster,

  • Get ready for showdowns that no one ever asked for, like

  • Jet Li versus Dolf Lundgren,

  • Steve Austin versus Randy Couture,

  • And Jason Statham versus a pickup basketball team.

  • "Next time I'll deflate all your balls."

  • Suit up with the leader of The Expendables: Barney Ross, a man with a mysterious past,

  • and a mysterious color-changing goatee.

  • Watch this killer with a conscience struggle through tough choices to do the right thing.

  • "This is my choice. There's no guilt. No guilt."

  • And struggle through Botox to make his face smile.

  • Ahh, almost there! Almost got it!

  • Aw.

  • Ride along on his mission to take down this generically evil CIA agent

  • And this generically evil general

  • To save this generically Latin island nation

  • going through some kind of coup or revolution or something.

  • "They wanted me out. Why? Because I saw the big picture!"

  • Once again: no one cares!

  • But it's not just boys playing with their toys.

  • Get to know the movie's rich female characters like

  • This helpless hostage,

  • This cheating girlfriend,

  • This random biker skank.

  • "Anything for you, baby."

  • And.. uhh.. that's all, I guess.

  • Not a lot of women in this movie.

  • Gear up for a film that seamlessly blends the worst action movie cliches of the last

  • forty years,

  • Featuring:

  • Heroes who somehow dodge every bullet from the 80's,

  • Corny one liners from the 90's,

  • Lame CGI blood effects from the 2000's,

  • And lame CGI everything else from today.

  • So get ready to say "Huh?" in a movie full of Asian, Latin, and European actors

  • who speak English as a second language.

  • And also Sylvester Stallone.

  • Is that English?

  • Starring...

  • Sylvester Staroids

  • Cranky

  • Ivan Drunko

  • The Buh Buh Buh Buh Buh Black Guy

  • Lucky To Be Here

  • Bruce Will-isn't In The Movie

  • Plane Li

  • Greasy Gandalf

  • and Old Man The Barbarian

  • The Expendables

  • Man all I really wanted to see is these guys trade one liners.

  • "I'll be back!"

  • "You've been back enough! I'LL be back."

  • "Yippee ki yay."

  • Nevermind.
