Here are some of the overlooked action movie gems that deserve more praise or appreciation from the fans.
The Expendables 2 (2012)
While I did enjoy the 1st installment in the franchise, I thought that The Expendables 2 was much more entertaining. First ,The buddy vibe continues and The Expendables really come across as a team this time out. Second, these aging stars have a great sense of humor about themselves and the absurdity of the action. The trading off of catchphrases between Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis is very funny. Third, Jean-Claude Van Damme seems to be really having a blast here and steals every scene that he is in.
If you know what you getting into then The Expendables 2 is just a fun throwback balls-to-the-wall action film.
