This was Dolph Lundgren's first theatrically released film since 1995's cyberpunk film Johnny Mnemonic. It is the first installment in The Expendables film series.

The film co-stars an ensemble cast of mostly action film actors consisting of Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Randy Couture, Terry Crews, Steve Austin, Mickey Rourke, and Bruce Willis. They all play to the gallery well, as do the rest.The Expendables is a 2010 American action film directed by Sylvester Stallone, who co-wrote it with David Callaham and also starred in the lead role. Its also nice to see Harrison Ford, Wesley Snipes & Antonio Banderas joining in. Performance-Wise: After Mel Gibson, its Stallone who delivers a performance of substance. Action-Sequences are the mainstay of the film. Patrick Hughes's Direction is satisfactory. Its the second-hour which is arresting & the climax is simply brilliant. Although I'd like to point out, that, the first-hour of the film, is slightly slow-paced & dull. Sylvester Stallone's Story & Screenplay is meant for the masses, as it delivers enough scope of human tension & explosive action. 'The Expendables 3' serves its propose, which is, to Entertain the audience. This action extravaganza which completes the trilogy, is indeed Good Fun! And its such a pleasure to watch Hollywood Legend Mel Gibson stealing the show, by enacting the baddie to perfection! 'The Expendables 3' Synopsis: Barney augments his team with new blood for a personal battle: to take down Conrad Stonebanks, the Expendables co-founder and notorious arms trader who is hell bent on wiping out Barney and every single one of his associates. 'The Expendables 3' is an entertaining 3rd part in the series, which had an amazingly impressive sequel.
