Expendables 2

[Wayde Robson]

Saw the Blu-ray. It's what you'd expect, silly, goofy action with some good laughs.

If you want a movie that harkens back to the 80s action movies, makes a lot of references to specific old movies in the script, this is it. There more Bruce Willis, more Arnold and in this one even some Chuck Norris.

Unfortunately what I liked about the first was a lot of the banter between Jason Statham and Stallone, this Expendables 2 is in too much of a hurry for that.

The audio is great, what you'd expect - lots of big boom. But the video is disappointing for a new movie on Blu-ray. Lots of grain is exposed in shadowy scenes.

Still a silly fun movie with the biggest collection of living legends since the disaster movies of the 70s.

I was also very dissapointed with the video quality, looked like and old vhs tapr to me, also thought the audio was not as good as it should have been, storyline was good, just couldnt get past the poor quality.

I'm waiting for the price to drop to less than $10, then I'll probably buy it.

I haven't seen it but liked the first one.

My blu ray player would not play this disc. My computer's blu ray drive also had trouble with this disc. I wonder if the sound track had anything to do with it.
