Sometimes I think I am the only person who has even seen it.

Perhaps Bob Seger has.... I kid no I have not seen it.

Yes, I thought it was one of Martin Sheen's finer performances.

Here's a classic that I found/bought on DVD
years after seeing it on television. I thought
it was a great movie.

Just finished watching The Expendables 2. Hey, it was free, and sometimes a little mindless violence is called for. Also having Jean-Claude van Damme as the bad guy didn't hurt.

On the other hand I just found out that next year part 3 is coming. It will have the usual gang, plus Mel Gibson, Wesley Snipes, Antonio Banderas and Harrison Ford. It will probably be just as stupid and I'll probably have fun with it.

Mindless violence is always a nice change from complex storylines. When I saw Expendables, I'd just seen Man of Steel. It was a nice contrast. From 'Who am I? Why am I here?' to 'MAH PLANE HAS GURNS! TAKAKAKAKAKAKA!'

Just picked this one up in the Walmart bargain bin. Funny and well acted.

That's a GREAT movie, and based on a true story. A coal miner's son becomes a rocket scientist for NASA.
I can't believe what they had to go through to get out of that dying coal mining town.
I bought the DVD and have watched it several times.

Yes, plain good old 80's action film! And I saw I also share your opinion of JC van Damme. He was a great villain!
