How many are there again, I have forgotten?: Briefly; Mickey Barnes/multiple Mickey's [Robert Paterson:] after he finds himself in a terrible situation with this so called friend, they decided to join this mission to this planet known as Niflheim and basically colonise it. Mickey signs up to be an Expendable, which without giving too much away means when he dies they have the technology to print off a carbon copy of his body and download his being into this vessel, so he could get given all of the experimental and dangerous jobs and somewhat if he died, they could just go through this procedure again roughly speaking every 20 hours, because I believe or think that is how long it took to make his new vessel, apologies if I'm wrong, but you still get the point nonetheless.

Generally speaking: the framework and pacing of this 137 minutes film for me just dragged its feet throughout until the final section of this film and then for some reason it suddenly wakes up.

Comedy, art and action; allow into begin by saying that I am British so dark comedy comes third nature to me; after a cup of tea and sarcasm, but I just didn't find this dark comedy funny for the vast majority of the time, I think I may have laughed twice, but I can't remember what for though, the art is throughout is of a very high quality be it the landscapes, set designs, wardrobe and these magnificent creatures known as creepers and yes towards the final section of this film there is this large action sequence of events.

Character developments and performances; they were very much what I expected them to be and the performances reflect that so these are good, because broadly speaking they have to try and generate some forward momentum or/and atmosphere and they really did try to carry this project for a heavy amount of the time.

This film receives: 2/10, this film is poor; I found it being quite insufferably boring, the person I watch some of this content with also thought essentially this film was absolutely garbage. Okay I can as I have already said and done give this film some praise for its artistic landscapes and so on and so forth on I am indifferent [even though based on this I gave this film another mark, including the art as well, it just felt just a little bit harsh not to give at least another mark based on as you can clearly see there are positives in some way: this is one of those occasions where I can say is you want to make this point?: Make it in this fashion as it plays out this way;] to an unintentional interpretation of virtual signalling of basically what the US would like to do to Gaza; but in the context of this film. I did have to say in my head: am I seeing and reading what I am seeing and reading; oh yes. But I feel comfortable suggesting; that subliminal messaging is wasted on the younger generations, because unless you feed it to them, they don't have the capability or the patience or understanding to connect the dots for their own. So on one hand I get the message, usually I would be more annoyed, but I don't know if it is because I'm getting older or/and I know as I have already illustrated the younger generations didn't get it; as its completely went over their heads and just to finish off I should tell you I went with unintentional, because when this film was being made we didn't have this situation with the US and Gaza, so I was thinking I would just put that out there as I really don't like this film, I still have to be professional about it.
