Those rascals are at it again after a near 10-year hiatus. Part 3 and its PG-13 antics killed the franchise there for a while, but they got that violence back. Somehow, this movie is still underperforming in the box office, but then again, isn't every movie? I'll blame people's falling interest in the cinema for that.

So how is the movie? Well, if you've seen any of the other movies, then this movie is like those. Just like those. There is nothing new in this entry. In fact, this movie is even missing certain things, notably Arnold Schwarzenegger and... yeah, Stallone basically isn't in it. Jason Statham carries the movie, yet with all that said... it's still a dumb entertaining popcorn flick. If you want to see your guys killing the shit out of the villains, then here you go. Of course, for today's representation-obsessed demographics, we have a couple of female expendables now. Megan Fox is one of them, and while I still don't take her for a bad-ass, that Jennifer's body is still top notch.

Early rumored casting from years ago suggested Hulk Hogan would be in this movie. Too bad that never happened, because I would have loved to see Rocky get a rematch with that hot dog. Alas, Stallone is showing his age a bit here, not only by joking about it, but by avoiding all physicality. All he does is fly planes here, but I'll take what I can get.

This movie is not great, but it's not bad.

It's not that surprising really, I don't think many people are that interested in a fourth one of these movies, especially after the 3rd which didn't do that well itself even at a PG-13.

A handful of movies have bucked the trend this year though:

Barbie
Super Mario Bros.
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
Oppenheimer
Guardians 3
Fast X

Anyway, that's all I've got time for today. Go away now.
