not just killing machines

Hollywood action movies have always made many men crazy, obsessed and excited, but the representatives of this type of film - Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger in the 1980s and 1990s - are aging. Now, in order to prove that their swords are not enough, they have teamed up with younger action male stars to shoot this film, vowing to double the hormone secretion of men around the world again. Stallone shouted, and the Hollywood action male star was like a cloud, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lange, and Mickey Rourke joined in succession, even though the veteran star Ruth Willis and the political A Nuo also came to make a cameo. The film focuses on a group of mercenaries with agility, marksmanship and knife skills who are tasked with infiltrating the island of Billina to eradicate local warlords and CIA traitors. However, they did not fight just for money, but also for the spirit and faith that remained in their hearts. The film is full of gunfights, action fights and explosions, and some scenes of machine guns blowing heads and daggers spinning in the windpipe are bloody but enjoyable. The form of action is no longer the traditional Western boxing, but a more observable one, a bit like the "mixed fighting" used by Donnie Yen in "Fuse". And when Barney (played by Stallone) lies there and asks Tour to tattoo himself, Stallone's naked triangular back will also make every audience heart beat. In addition to the tense action scenes, there are also some humorous scenes from time to time in the film. And what I'm about to say is not that. When Barney told Tour that he had been thinking about Sandra who was still on the island, Tour told him why: Sandra's courage and spirit infected him. As mercenaries who have been desperate for money, all day long with swords and swords, murderous people, their human aura is slowly fading, while Sandra is risking her life to expose the crimes of the local warlord. Sandra's self-sacrificing and compassionate spirit also inspired Barney and his mercenaries to eradicate cancer for the locals, even if not for money. Therefore, it is invaluable that an action movie can show humanitarianism and humane care.
