Last night, we saw the new Sylvester Stallone movie,
The Expendables. With a cast like Sly, Jason Statham, Randy Couture, Dolph Lundgren, Mickey Rourke, Jet Li, Steve Austin and cameos by Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger, you'd figure the movie ought to be half decent. While it was not exactly bad, the movie didn't live up to the potential of the cast. Of course, you don't have to expect any interesting plot development, but the story didn't gel well, apart from some decent one-liners. If only the rest of the movie were as action-packed as the last 20 minutes, that could have saved it ....
Since I am still banned from playing CrimeCraft, I vowed to take the free time to switch my gaming rig into the new case. Now's the time!
