 The Expendables is an action packed, explosive, exhilarating film which will keep you on the edge of your seat! portraying the stereotypical Action genre film, and by looking at the statistics above with an $80 million the directors can fill this film with all the explosives and stunts they wont...the irony is that with all this money most action films come across cheesy and predictable, but The Expendables broke the curse as it was a massive hit in the box office making $274,470,394 and a love of the critics!


Being an A Level student, this means i do not work or earn money, therefore not having a budget which can give justice to an action movie. As a pair Me & Dan have come to the conclusion that we will not be choosing this as our genre.
