Theater, Rent, No Thanks, Undecided? Rent. The Expendables 2 is the follow up to the ’80s style action movie that featured some of the biggest names in the macho man category. This installment features even MORE of those type of guys including the returning Ah-nuld, his first big movie post being governor of Cali. I would talk about the plot, but, I think there is not much of one, it’s pretty much just action movie porn. Anyway, I’ll be renting this one for sure as my interest in the franchise isn’t strong enough to warrant a theater viewing. –LJF
Theater, Rent, No Thanks, Undecided? THEATER. Let’s be real here for a second. In no way, shape or form is this movie going to be a cinematic masterpiece rife with dialogue that would make Aaron Sorkin and David Mamet look like amateurs, cinematography that would make Christopher Nolan seem like a hack or an overall sense of excellence that would make Hitchcock come back to life and say “This is better than anything I’ve ever done.” No, none of this is going to happen. But you know what this movie is going to be…FUCKING AWESOME. Seriously, how can it not? It’s got Stallone, JCVD, Arnold, Bruce Willis, Dolph, Statham, Jet Li and CHUCK NORRIS. It’s going to be a hyperactive, testosterone fueled, ass-kicking good time. This is the type of film you check your brain at the door, you let all your cinematic pretensions go by the wayside and just enjoy what’s being put on the screen. I mean seriously, one of the lines in the movie is “I now pronounce you man…AND KNIFE.” It doesn’t get much better than that. I am so fucking pumped for this movie.–BB
