The Expendables

I hesitated to go see this one, but agreed thinking it was really a gift to earthdad. This would be HIS man movie - I would endure it. I was wrong!

We both really enjoyed this movie. It's just great to see so much talent in one film. All of the actors do a wonderful job. Sly is back, Mickey Rourke, Jet Li, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren..... OH and Eric Roberts, Randy Couture, Terry Crews, did I mention Bruce Willis and Arnold (the Gov) Schwartzenegger himself (with one laugh out loud moment) ? All present and accounted for.

It's pretty much a man's movie with lots of guy stuff and tattoos and lots and lots of stuff blowing up, but I loved it. The plot is not complicated, the action is good, the movie moves right along. We do get back stories on everybody in our little group of heroes EXCEPT Terry Crews :( That part stood out and we wondered why. His part is still exceptional.

This is just a fun movie. We gave it a "3"

Pueblo Tinseltown was the place - we got to see Super Manager Shane today which is always a pleasure. Popcorn was hot and fresh and everyone was friendly and moving quickly - great time at the movies!
