I saw two movies last night at the Keno Drive-In.
First was The Expendables.
The only thing I have to say is that the term “expendable” means “unnecessary”, and that makes the movie perfectly titled.
Spoiler: the “good guys” win, with the “good guys” being mass-murdering mercenaries.
Did I like it? No
Did I expect to like it? I half expected it to be OK.
Would I recommend it? No.

Second was Killers.
There are two different ways in which the phrase “This movie was a killer!” can be interpreted. In one interpretation, it means that it was majorly awesome. In the other interpretation, it was absolutely awful. The second one applies here.
I was half expecting a romantic-comedy/double-life-spy-thriller a la True Lies. Instead I got a-spy-who-leaves-”the-game” and a misinterpretation of a postcard that causes massive suburban body piling.
Spoiler: Dad was behind it the whole time, and they have a baby.
Did I like it? Not really.
Did I expect to like it? I has mostly expecting something “cute, but explody”. I didn’t get it.
Would I recommend it? No.
