Expendables 4 Review

The movie is an over-the-top action fest with plenty of explosions, gunfights, and hand-to-hand combat.

The cast is excellent, with Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, and Randy Couture all reprising their roles.

The newcomers, including Megan Fox and Andy Garcia, are also great.

The action is well-choreographed and exciting, and the movie is full of memorable one-liners.

However, the plot is thin and the characters are underdeveloped.

Overall, Expendables 4 is a fun and entertaining action movie, but it's not going to win any awards.

The movie has a good sense of humor and is self-aware of its own over-the-top nature.
