  • a.k.a. The Expendables - Stahlharte Söldner

The Expendables nennt sich ein Trupp bestens ausgebildeter Söldner, der von dem mit allen Wassern gewaschenen Barney Ross befehligt wird. Von dem undurchsichtigen Church, der den Mord an seinem Sohn rächen lassen will, erhalten sie den Auftrag, den Diktator Garza in seiner Bananenrepublik zu töten und den alten, demokratisch gewählten Präsidenten wieder zu installieren. Schnell stellen Ross und Co. fest, dass Garza zum einen von der CIA gedeckt wird, ihr Auftraggeber zum anderen mit falschen Karten spielt. Und dann heftet sich mit dem durchgeknallten Gunnar Jenssen auch noch ein unehrenhaft aus der Gruppe ausgeschiedener Killer an die Fersen der Expendables.

Expendables : Unité spéciale

Ce ne sont ni des mercenaires, ni des agents secrets. Ils choisissent eux‐mêmes leurs missions et n’obéissent à aucun gouvernement. Ils ne le font ni pour l’argent, ni pour la gloire, mais parce qu’ils aident les cas désespérés. Depuis dix ans, Izzy Hands, de la CIA, est sur les traces du chef de ces hommes, Barney Ross. Parce qu’ils ne sont aux ordres de personne, il devient urgent de les empêcher d’agir. Éliminer un général sud‐américain n’est pas le genre de job que Barney Ross accepte, mais lorsqu’il découvre les atrocités commises sur des enfants, il ne peut refuser. Avec son équipe d’experts, Ross débarque sur l’île paradisiaque où sévit le tyran. Lorsque l’embuscade se referme sur eux, il comprend que dans son équipe, il y a un traître. Après avoir échappé de justesse à la mort, ils reviennent aux États‐Unis, où chaque membre de l’équipe est attendu. Il faudra que chacun atteigne les sommets de son art pour en sortir et démasquer celui qui a trahi…

I mercenari - The Expendables
  • a.k.a. I mercenari

Gli Expendables sono un gruppo di mercenari professionisti dell'artiglieria e del combattimento corpo a corpo, chiamati ad assolvere solo missioni ad alto rischio. In seguito a un blitz su di un cargo di terroristi somali finito in carneficina, il capo della banda, Barney Ross, decide di espellere il tiratore scelto Gunnar a causa del suo temperamento scriteriato e imprevedibile. I "sacrificabili" rimasti si ritrovano invece amichevolmente da Tool, vecchio membro della squadra passato ai tatuaggi e al ruolo di tramite coi vari mandanti degli incarichi. L'ultimo dei quali chiede a Barney e ai suoi uomini di uccidere il dittatore di un'isola del Centro America in affari con un americano per gestire il traffico della droga.

    Barney, Christmas and the rest of the team comes face-to-face with Conrad Stonebanks, who years ago co-founded The Expendables with Barney. Stonebanks subsequently became a ruthless arms trader and someone who Barney was forced to kill… or so he thought. Stonebanks, who eluded death once before, now is making it his mission to end The Expendables -- but Barney has other plans. Barney decides that he has to fight old blood with new blood, and brings in a new era of Expendables team members, recruiting individuals who are younger, faster and more tech-savvy. The latest mission becomes a clash of classic old-school style versus high-tech expertise in the Expendables’ most personal battle yet.
