While none of the Expendable movies are particularly great or memorable, this one was completely devoid of anything good. It felt more like an SNL sketch parodying of the Expendables more than an actual movie.
Megan Fox gave such a bad performance that I actually skipped through most of her scenes rather than cringe to death watching them. 50 Cent is not an actor and cannot act to save his life so why is he here. The 'plot twist' of Sly Stallone not really being dead is so painfully obvious that anyone who has ever seen 5 minutes of any media could have seen it coming. Remember: if you don't see the exact moment the character dies or see the body; they are not dead.
For a franchise that glorifies action starts from the 80s this film is particularly bereft of anyone from the 80s. And of course, wow, an authority figure turns out to be the real villain. Who'd have thunk it?
