Stallone & company know that all we want with each Expendables movie is more—more of everything that happened in the previous installment and then some. The Expendables 3 certainly does that, although there are times when I wonder if perhaps it delivers too much. Our heroes are in a fight for their lives against the team’s co-founder who has since become one of the world’s most ruthless arms dealers. We see the Expendables become expandable as they recruit an entire new team to help wage their most personal war yet. UFC/WWE star Ronda Rousey has the most presence of the new blood; the rest are generally, well, expendable. Despite the excess, it is still entertaining as hell and would serve as a fitting end to the series had a fourth Expendables movie not been announced. Let’s hope that Carl Weathers shows up in that one.
