Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
wahabfaria I saw this movie more than 50 times. Still I dont get bored watching this movie again. all the heroes are great. Acted nicely on their role. just love them all. thanks director for making such a nice action thrilling movie for us.
bricslove Shame on all these actors who participated in this abomination.That the movie sucks is one thing... (Have a look at all one star ratings and see what's common in all of them. Well, I agree.) That you think you can condone the movie content because it's CIA cracking down on some Latin ""dictator" and to think this joke can still work at this age, where you have your whistle-blowers confessing stuff to do even more bad deeds but confessing anyway, to think this horse manure would pass undetected... is such an insult.Have some respect for the world history before you venture into mindless, psychopathic, machismo buffoonery whitewashed with some perverted notion of heroism! The old Hollywood vomit, regurgitated once again into unsuspecting, innocent minds? Between the sheets, maybe. But not any longer. Go back to sucking oligarchs' balls and this time keep quiet already. Geez.
darthMisaskernew I was super hyped when this film came out years ago. It had every action star imaginable all together fighting crime and kicking ass. When it came out I thought it was one of the most awesome films I had ever seen. However as the years went on, it simply isn't that good. The directing is really annoying and suffers from BS quick-cut editing where you cant see a single thing that's going on. We know people like Statham, Stallone, Lundgren, and Stone Cold Steve Austin can fight, so why can't we see it? The plot is really boring and you wish that maybe they would've done something a lot more interesting than a generic plot ripped from Commando or Rambo. When I first saw the film in theaters, I actually really liked the plot because it was an exact homage to 80's action film plots, but after rewatching it, I definitely think something different should've been done here. I meant the film is not bad, but it is not great anymore. If there is one thing the film excels on, it's the gore. The gore in this film is so over-the-top that it's amazing...that is, when it isn't CGI. The only thing truly worth noting is the actors. It is AWESOME to see them interacting together on screen like they do in this film. Stallone, Statham, Lundgren, Schwarzenneger, Willis, Li, Austin, and Crews are all incredible with their witty dialog and exchanges, and even cooler with their big guns and fight scenes. That's what the film is all about, I guess.
Eric Stevenson I guess the only reason I was interested in seeing this was because it was the last (or one of the last) movies to ever be reviewed on Siskel and Ebert or Ebert and Roeper or Roeper or whatever. I really didn't need to know anything about the plot at all, given that it was just a movie about a bunch of action stars getting together and blowing stuff up. That's what I thought I was getting and that's exactly what I got. There actually is a major complaint I have. The most famous star of all was Arnold Schwarzenegger and he barely appears in the film at all! I mean, I thought he'd at least appear at the end to rescue everybody.That really did annoy me. Even Bruce Willis didn't have much screen time. So, this movie features a bunch of action scenes and killing in all sorts of ways. The action was decent, but there just wasn't anything that good about the characters. It especially got clichéd at the end when they were talking about how the hero and villain were similar and everything. I guess I like the settings. It's just really nothing you haven't seen in many other action movies. I heard Eric Roberts was the most prolific actor out there and it was nice to see him in this movie. **1/2
