Expendables 2

Dear bloggie,

Tata the Avengers... Hello to Expendables 2...

Went to watch tis movie with da monks. What I think about it?

Back in the days when movie heroes dun need gamma mutation, iron suit, super soldier serum, toy hammer to k*ck @$$... Heck, these "classics" just need "PLOT HOLE".

Trained soldiers armed with sub machine guns missing their aim, rockets keep hitting a few meters from their mark, evil baddies that prefer to rant their mouth on and on and on rather than killing their foes when it's a clear kill scenario, multiple heat shots... Welcome, ol skool action movies.

Actually, if I went to see this with expectation of today's modern action movie, I would probably use words like "Garbage", "WTF!?", "GODLIKE"... but I went in with the mindset of this movie being a parody to the 80/90's action movies. Hence ridiculously GODLIKE scene that if I would bash turn out quite funny as a parody. I mean take for instance the crazy assault scene, when 5-6 ah pek storm into the enemy base in their jeep. They like got invisible shield, coz so many ppl shooting at them yet no shot hit and all their shot head shots...

A nice mixture of action and humor but do note it's 18SG, ALOT of violent scenes... We practically have the whole gang of ah pek: Stallone, Jason Statham, Lundgren (Dunno who is tis classic), Jet Li, CHUCK NORRIS, Arnold, Bruce Willis... and even Van Damme as the baddie. The action scene are really way way ridiculous, like crash landing an airplane into enemy base, but not a scratch on any of the classics... -_-'

Overall a enjoyable movie if u treat it not a serious action movie but rather a tribute to old skool action movie. I however think even if treated as a serious modern action movie, it's still WAY more enjoyable than "Clash of Titan". A recommended watch.
