The Expendables 3 4K 2014

If only because of the silliness and absurdity, this movie does not deserve a high score. The first and second movies had an adult rating, because of which the entertainment did not suffer, and the camerawork was very good. Here there are noticeable camera dodges at the moments of the murders to capitalize on the children as well. It's depressing from the first minutes.

Then the most important nonsense - Stallone's character decides that his guys shouldn't die and new ones should be recruited to die. 'Makes sense.

The characters are a buzzkill. Snipes is drained after the opening stupid scene with bad CG you could say, Jet Li is shown once at all, Crews in the opening scene. Ford just flies on a helicopter, Schwartz in the second part showed himself, here - no, the villain is predictable. The jokes are very hackneyed (like 'ladies first' about men and 'maybe you two should get a room'), there are practically no successful ones. Banderas is in charge of the puns this time, but he was more annoying than funny. The newcomers don't need any help here - just save them, although they are given a little bit to rehabilitate.

A special bow to the costume designer - it takes a lot of effort to dress the main characters so ridiculously.

The music is quite ordinary. But the songs sound not bad, but out of tune. The whole world sitting on a ticking bomb - what is it for, when the guys just live an ordinary life in retirement, and nothing illegal is shown behind the scenes?

The description is all lies - it says about the struggle of generations and high technology, but it doesn't smell of them at all. Using a drone once per movie and bickering about a laptop doesn't count.

It was painful to watch. I wish I could praise it, but there's nothing to praise. Honestly, there are no pluses, everything is passable. Watch only for those who are looking for a way to relax, but I have higher cultural requirements for movies.
