Expend4bles is the fourth installment in the Expendables franchise. This time it's up to the Expendables to save the world from going into World War III with Russia.
Statham is top of the list in the poster and for good reason. He really is the main character of the film. Fox plays his love interest and she's had a lot of work done on her face to make her look like herself pre-botch. She looks good and isn't a bother.
The trailer made me feel like I was going to see Iko Uwais go up against Tony Jaa, something that I think martial arts fans would love to see. Unfortunately, there wasn't that match-up. You might know Iko Uwais from The Raid and Tony Jaa from Ong-Bak.
I didn't expect Expend4bles to be good, I just wanted to be entertained. I was entertained but the writing done by Kurt Wimmer, Tad Daggerhart, and Max Adams. Wimmer probably wrote the action as it felt a bit like Point Break. Daggerhart is the new writer in the group and probably botched the dialogue. Also, the CG could have been better. It was too obvious and not up to 2023 expectations.
I'd see a fifth installment, result: C.
