A double bill of action blockbusters. In 'The Expendables' (2010), an ensemble cast of action stalwarts including Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Randy Couture, Steve Austin, Terry Crews and Mickey Rourke join forces to bring down a South American dictator. The film also boasts cameo appearances from Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis, and sees Stallone and Schwarzenegger sharing a screen for the first time ever. In the sequel 'The Expendables 2' (2012), Willis, Stallone and Statham reprise their roles, as Mr Church (Willis) reunites the formidable Expendables team, plus new member Billy the Kid (Liam Hemsworth), for what should be a straightforward job. But when one of their number is murdered by adversary Jean Vilain (Jean-Claude Van Damme), the team's quest for revenge finds them pitted against an unexpected rival.

Russian-set action thriller directed and co-written by, as well as starring, Dolph Lundgren. A drummer (Lundgren), an ex-biker and a Russian F.S.B. agent join forces when pop star Venus (Melissa Ann Smith) and Russian President Petrov (Hristo Shopov) are taken hostage by armed extortionists at a Moscow charity concert. Much fast-paced action ensues.

Heist thriller starring Antonio Banderas and Morgan Freeman. Heavily in debt to the Russian mob, a veteran criminal (Freeman) decides to recruit a novice thief (Banderas) to help him steal two famous Faberge eggs from an impenetrable vault. Radha Mitchell co-stars as the temptress who comes between the partners in crime.

Jason Statham and James Franco star in this action thriller adapted from Chuck Logan's novel by Sylvester Stallone. Following the death of his wife, former drug enforcement officer Phil Broker (Statham) moves to a quiet town with his young daughter, hoping to give her a better life. However, their peaceful existence is short-lived when Broker learns of the violence and dodgy dealings corrupting the town at the hands of local drug boss Gator Bodine (Franco). Broker soon finds himself fighting to protect both his daughter and the town. The film also stars Winona Ryder, Kate Bosworth and Rachelle Lefevre.
