The Expendables 4 release date and reviews
The Expendables 4 was released in theaters on Friday, September 22, 2023, and opened to mostly negative reviews.
Our own Anthony McGlynn didn’t have many good things to say about the bloated sequel, saying in his The Expendables 4 review that “The Expendables 4 isn’t much for logic, or anything else worthwhile for that matter.” Ouch.
Elsewhere, Amy Nicholson from New York Times wrote: “The film’s last reel is so awful — so sneeringly contemptuous of our good-faith efforts to play along with these shenanigans — that we leave the theater still thinking of that shot of a corpse’s middle finger. It sure seemed pointed at us.”
The A.V. Club‘s Courtney Howard said: “Lackluster on practically every level, this ought to be renamed The Disposables as it’s a giant waste of everyone’s time and talent.”
What’s The Expendables 4 about?
The Expendables 4has the team facing an arms dealer who controls a private army, as well as trying to prevent accessto nuclear weapons. Fairly routine stuff for this bunch of heavy hitters.
Uwais is playing themovie villain, said arms dealer, who has a vast army at his disposal (and maybe a nuclear weapon or two). What else do you need to know? Some categorically bad dude is doing something only the Expendables can handle, so they go and handle it.
The team also finds themselves separated for a majority of the movie, after Statham is temporarily kicked out and the rest of the group finds themselves ambushed and kidnapped. So get ready to see Statham attacking a boat on his own, taking down baddie after baddie with his solo skills.
This is also the last of The Expendables movies to feature Stallone. He’s announced he plans on retiring from the series and wants Statham to take over as the lead character, which is clear from the Expend4bles ending. There’ll also be explosions and bullets and lots of kicks. Just like the previous three, and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
