This is my review of The Expendables 3. Not only does Sylvester Stallone take part once again in writing the script but, he adds newer stars of the action genre, Creighton Rothenberger and Katrin Benedikt.

But unfortunately so is the plot. And the dialogue. And the locations. And despite the best efforts of director Patrick Hughes – who helmed the excellent, criminally under-seen Red Hill – Expendables 3 feels like the continuation of a story that’s starting to look a little tired.
Which is a shame as it starts out in exciting fashion, the gang breaking a former Expendable out of an armoured prison transport in a spectacular pre-credit sequence that’s reminiscent of the Bond films.
They are enjoyable moments in a film that entertains for much of its run-time, and it’s still a blast watching these ‘80s icons get together to blow stuff up onscreen.
