The ’80’s action kings are back in the first full trailer for THE EXPENDABLES 2! The gang’s all here, plus a few new additions, dealing out explosions, one-liners, bad accents, hokey dialogue, machine-gun fire, and a few walking-in-slow-motion scenes.
I won’t keep you. Enjoy:
This looks pretty damn fun and a lot more polished than the last outing, which is likely due to director Simon West’s “music video” style. I think it’s a good fit and allows Stallone to focus on his character and handlebar moustache more.
The PG-13/R-rating controversy is still raging for the film, but I can say that it looks promising either way. We’d all prefer buckets of blood, I think, but if nothing else the film should be a damn hoot.
We’ll find out if our aging action stars can still deliver the goods when THE EXPENDABLES 2 opens fire on audiencies on August 17, 2012.
