Sly, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, and Megan Fox face their most dangerous foes yet: boredom and obsolescence.
Armed with every weapon they can get their hands on, the Expendables are the world's last line of defense and the team that gets called when all other options are off the table.
Group leader Barney has been biding his time in New Orleans, bouncing between bars and his bike shop. His second-in-command, Christmas , is nearby, preferring to settle his bestie’s barroom brawls rather than his own domestic squabbles with hot-tempered girlfriend/ fellow Expendable Gina . Over the years, through all their banter and bluster, these two men have put themselves in harm’s way to secretly save the world from disaster, forming a tight bond in the process.
Director Scott Waugh and screenwriters Kurt Wimmer, Tad Daggerhart, and Max Adams demonstrate little to no understanding of these characters, nor a desire to engage with the genre on the whole. All fail in grasping what made this franchise special: seeing our beloved heroes play with their legacies, defy logic, reason, and sometimes gravity in ridiculously over-the-top fashion, while delivering their patented brand of catchphrases and choreography.
