It's the third best out of the four, but better than [The Expendables 3] -- and still very entertaining.

| Oct 4, 2023

If Expend4bles turns out to be a swan song, it’s a fitting one, since it so neatly encapsulates the series’ formula.

| Oct 2, 2023

It's just a huge waste of people with incredible talent.

| Original Score: 1/10 | Sep 28, 2023

Dull and tasteless. The insertion of “4” [in the title] is unfortunately just about the most clever thing the fourth installment of this action series has to offer.

| Sep 26, 2023

This is a dumb-as-rocks exercise in violence and stupidity, which represents a low for a franchise that was already scraping the bottom of the barrel, and it's on the very short list of candidates for the year's worst movie.

| Original Score: D- | Sep 26, 2023

The knuckle-headed appeal of this dopey action franchise has finally evaporated with its latest instalment aka Expend-Four-Bles!

| Original Score: 1/5 | Sep 25, 2023

“Expend4dbles” wants to be the kind of movie that’s best seen on cable with commercial breaks or on a beat-up VHS tape, but there are far more entertaining classics that can get the job done. There’s no need to enlist this tired team.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Sep 25, 2023

Watching the cast of Expend4bles... sweating and straining their way through the “casual banter” section of the screenplay is like watching contestants on The World’s Strongest Man attempting to climb a ladder while carrying a tractor tyre.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 24, 2023

“The Disposables” would describe it better.

| Sep 22, 2023

Plot, you say? What plot? In a word: negligible.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 22, 2023

[A] laughably lazy exercise in utility-grade meat-and-potatoes filmmaking.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 22, 2023

The bar was already so low, and yet this film manages to sneak under it.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Sep 22, 2023

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.

Expend4bles: wh4t a lo4d of cr4p.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Sep 22, 2023

Expendabes 4 is ambushed by its own utter lack of new ideas or better ways to use the talents of the many charismatic actors who did turn up to work for various lengths of time.

| Sep 21, 2023

It all gets very tiresome. It doesn’t help that the special effects sometimes seem thrown together with about as much care as the script

| Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 21, 2023

For all its efforts at wit, Expend4bles offers exactly two kinds of laughs: unintentional (seriously, the explosion effects and green-screen moments are hilarious) and unearned (the joke that lands best is a direct quote from another movie).

| Sep 21, 2023

Lackluster on practically every level, this ought to be renamed The Disposables as it’s a giant waste of everyone’s time and talent.

| Original Score: D- | Sep 21, 2023

... Installment number four of the elite mercenaries series manages to not be entirely extraneous to our entertainment needs, disarming as often with easy charm, as with a high-kick to the hyoid.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 21, 2023

The movie is unsurprising and not especially ambitious, but it’s agile enough to vault over most of its flaws.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Sep 21, 2023
