The Expendables 2
If you love over the top action films with incredible and hilarious cast members then this is the movie for you and everyone else. Have you ever wished to see all your favorite classic action stars in one movie? Well 'The Expendables' was every action movie enthusiast's dream come true and 'The Expendables 2' explosively improved that dream with more Schwarzenegger, Van Damme as the Villain and Chuck Norris. This movie was a great starting block for Arnold, who seems to be getting back into making action movies again now that he is no longer in office and needs money to pay off his problems. And as you would expect, Arnold is in many more scenes, has many more lines making fun of his movies and the cast members ages as well, this was a good comeback for him. Stallone was good too, he and Statham played off each other really well. His fight with Van Damme at the end of the movie was AWESOME! I won't give anything away, but the big fight at the end is really, really good. I actually like the female lead that they had this time over what they had in the first movie. The main female in the first film was just a typical damsel in distress, just someone for Stallone to save and look good next to him. The female lead in the sequel is an agent for Bruce Willis character and has some mad skills: she can fight, is strategic, and can fire weapons with great accuracy. If you saw 'The Hunger Games' back in March then you should recognize the new gun man as Hemsworth who played Gale. In the movie, I would say he is less of an actual person and more of a plot device, he dies just to give the cast a reason to pursue and kill the villains. I loved this movie and I am definitely planning to see it in theaters again.
