I was a HUGE fan of the John Wick series. Yes, they are over the top, yes they are needlessly violent, yes the staging and acting is fantastic.... In the first 3.
OK, in the first 3 there isn't much of a story, but it is there, albeit a tenuous storyline. This is just... flat. There isn't a coherent story line. The secondary characters are really not even wallpaper. The main "bad guy" has ome from nowhere, and the whole thing goes beyond the realms of believability. I know the first 3 were pushing the limits, but this is just ridiculous. Running gun fights in the streets of Paris with zero police presence, an endless parade of fighting and killing. At least in the first 3 thee was SOMETHING that made it make sense.
This film gave the impression of being "how much more money can we squeeze out of this franchise". I am horrified to find that there is another sequel following the ending of this film (I won't say what it is as I can avoid a spoiler).

I am so glad I watched this movie "free" on Amazon Prime.
This is without a doubt one of the worst movies I have ever seen. I can't beleive that I actually sat there and watched it all of the way trhough.
To start with, the acting is below par (even for an Expendables movie - let's face it, we don't watch these movies for the acting quality, but this one went too far).
The green screen throughout is so bad that it is almost comical, it made me think at one stage that they had done it for comedy effect, until I realised that ... Nope, they just didn't care. Truly, the effects in the original "Flash Gordon" series were almost as good...And that was almost 100 years ago!!
At one pointthere is a small boat ploughing through the big wave (not a spoiler - honestly! You couldn't spoil this film if you tried), and you could have stood a 10p coin on the deck and it would not have fallen over.
The plot is obvious (I'm being generous in calling it a plot). The action scenes are rubbish. I don't know what else to say. I was a fan of the cheesiness of this frachise, but this one is just pathetic.
As I say in my intro... I'm being generous with 3 stars, simply because it is an Expendables movie and I was not expecting a lot from it.,
