The film thunders through its paces, under the energetic direction of Simon West.

Why make a new mediocrity when the old ones are still so much more fun to watch?

The over-the-hill gang engages in various shoot-outs punctuated by lame wisecracks that refer to their iconic roles. Guess whether someone says, "I'll be back."

I won’t ruin the Chuck Norris “fact” used in the film, but it provides one of the few genuine laughs, and it’s certainly better than the forced wisecracks from Stallone, Willis, and Schwarzenegger.
