They movie still looks "meh".
Seriously. All that "star" power means they will be fighting for every second of it during the movie. Its got the Govanator... for like 2 minutes. Woo hoo. I'd rather see Rambo (the first and ONLY Rambo movie) a few times, than this.
The A-Team at least realized it was a film about having fun while exploding stuff instead of trying make itself into some serious movie with a plot.

I must see this movie.
My wife wants to see it too.
Is it ok for her to watch this testosterone fest?

I really don't think all those stars are going to be a problem.
Quite a few of them look to be cameos at most (whether showing on screen and saying a few words or showing up for a fight scene).
Mickey Rourke, Bruce Willis, Arnold Swartzeneger, Dolph Lundren, Steve Austin...I think they're going to be bit parts at most.

To bad it isn't a voting year for govenor, or is it I honesly don't know. Then Arnold could say something like, "Vote for me if you want to live." Sorry I couldn't resist, I know I know corny.

Sorry for the lateness, gents, but I was waiting for the details. Apparently, Stallone, Statham, Crews, Li, Lundgren, Coutour, and Rourke are all members of the titular "Expendables", while Willis plays the man who hires them, and Ahnold plays the former team leader and rival to Stallone, and the premise shown is pretty much the plot to every team-based action movie ever made in the 80's:
"A team of highly-trained, dangerous mercenaries are sent on a mission to a South American country, with the objective to overthrow a cold-blooded dictator. As the mission begins, the mercenaries discover that the situation is not as it appears. The men find themselves trapped in a deadly game of deception."
Oh and I guess Steve Austin plays a rogue CIA agent's (READ: Major Antagonist's) bodyguard, which means he'll be in a number of scenes.
Basically, it's the Ocean's Eleven of action films. Yes, please.

The Magnificent Seven
The Dirty Dozen

Both excellent films and I would also recommend Kurosawa's original Seven Samurai (just as star-studded, just Japanese stars, and I think the message the ending converys gets across much better from the perspective of samurai, who had been doing their thing for centuries rather than the decades cowboys were active, just sayin').
