The first assemblage of aging action stars was in 2010 and this latest movie features some of the originals, plus younger ones in an attempt to keep it fresh and appealing…which ain’t working. Sylvester Stallone leads the pack on a mission to save the world from another rogue with nuclear detonators. Thus begins an almost non-stop barrage of noise and blurs framed as action, but this time it becomes a Jason Statham movie. He gets at least half of the fights, which translates into dozens of deaths. The wiseass remarks that are supposed to pass as witty banter are bland. The almost continuous boisterous battles just become a montage of mess and the plot couldn’t get more absurd. Let’s just hope there isn’t another sequel, because it can’t get much worse.
