An affectionate comment sparked a retrospective of The Expendables 4, and the viewer mentions some of the classic elements of the film with deep emotion, as if taking us back to the old days of The Expendables. Next, we'll rearrange these elements for a new review.
Take Gunner, for example, in the first three films, he always kept his glass in his hand, but in "The Expendables 4" we see him wearing reading glasses and concentrating on reading books away from wine.
Thor's ears have also become one of the classics, and although he doesn't play much in each one, the audience will remember his unique ears.
Gog's son Garland took over his role in the fourth part, continuing his father's word-sinister character and becoming a member of the death squad.
Jacob Scipio plays Garland, which bears a resemblance to Banderas, which is also a tribute to Gog's character.
The trenches and yin and yang played by Schwarzenegger and Jet Li did not appear in this part, perhaps because of busy work and pension plans.
Terry Cruise's Caesar also does not appear, and the newly joined 50 Cents seems to be a stand-in for Caesar.
As for the Christmas girlfriend, the earlier girlfriend Lacy is played by Charisma Carpenter, who broke up after parting in the film, looking for her for Christmas.
And in "The Expendables 4", Christmas's new girlfriend Gina is played by Megan Fox, who is also a member of the Expendables. The dispute and fierce battle between the two impressed the audience.
Finally, Barney's lucky ring also aroused the interest of the audience, it has always been Barney's beloved, but in this part, it appears elsewhere, leaving suspense.
Recalling the first "The Expendables" in 2010, the work written and directed by Stallone gathered Jason Statham, Duff Rungel, Jet Li, Bruce Willis, Mickey Locke, Randy Kudrow and other male gods, and won the love of the audience.
In the following years, sequels were released one after another, and the cast continued to upgrade, attracting big-name action stars such as Shange Winton and Arnold Schwarzenegger. The ratings of the first three films are stable at around 7 points, which is considered a masterpiece in action movies.
Once, these actors were not afraid of any scene, like tough guy performance, Steve Austin, Shange, Mel Gibson have all competed with them.
However, in this film, we see a bar scene worth thinking about, Barney has to ask for Christmas to come out, because he has felt that age cannot be ignored, which is also a tribute to the past.
Today, Stallone's generation of action superstars is getting old, and their era is drifting away.
The audience can also see in this final chapter that there are fewer and fewer veteran stars active in the film industry. The end of the "The Expendables" series also symbolizes the basic end of the action movies of that era. Perhaps there will never be another movie that gathers so many action superstars.
