One thing for sure, this kinda film will always have its space in everybody’s heart. From the music to its visual everybody knows this film is an extreme action one! Even with so many action scenes this film able to put some funny touches everywhere. From how they put every character with their own personality. For example, Nina Dobrev character that’s funny and smart. Kris Wu’s character also has its own unique style. Rory McCann as Tennyson “The Torch” and Deepika Padukone as a huntress with a girl power style. Ruby Rose as a sniper. Donnie Yen took the role as the films you could say, villain. Who the role almost went to Jet Li.

The sequel already in the talks with Vin Diesel would be returning with the rest of the crew. For you, a fan of action films this film is for you! But, for you who wants to find something than just film’s with entertainment should go watch another film. Anyway, this film kinda gives everybody ’The Expendables’ feeling.
