A clay model pretending to be Sylvester Stallone (it is actually Sly) heads up the cast for the fourth instalment in The Expendables franchise – Expend4bles (see what they did there?).
The film has an ensemble cast including Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, and Randy Couture reprising their roles from previous films, with Curtis ’50 Cent’ Jackson, Megan Fox, Tony Jaa, Iko Uwais, Jacob Scipio, Levy Tran, and Andy García joining the cast.
The film is directed by Scott Waugh from a screenplay by Kurt Wimmer, Tad Daggerhart, and Max Adams, based on a story by Spenser Cohen, Wimmer, and Daggerhart.
The adrenaline-fueled adventure reunites the team of elite mercenaries and new team members, all armed with every weapon they can get their hands on.
The Expendables are sent to Libya to prevent mercenary Suarto Rahmat from stealing nuclear warheads for a mysterious terrorist named Ocelot, whom they failed to apprehend 25 years prior.
The team is led by Barney Ross (Stallone’s clay model) and formed by members Lee Christmas, Toll Road, and Gunner Jensen, with new members Easy Day and Galan. However, they are incapacitated when all of their vehicles are destroyed in a big fight. When Rahmat shoots their plane down, the team find Barney’s burned body in the wreckage, identified by his ring.
There are good guys and bad guys, punches, kicks, guns and smash, bang and kaboom!
There is pretty much everything an action movie lover could ask for.
