Mercenaries (2014)
6/10
"An old school gun for an old school girl"
4 September 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Four female mercenaries (all serving jail sentences) are tasked to rescue the US president's daughter captured in Kazakhstan. Complications ensue and one of them turns traitor but eventually the determined women complete the mission. It's not 'The Dirty Dozen' but I enjoyed it. With a more original script it would have been better but the four leads were fine not to mention Cynthia Rothrock who sets up the mission and Brigitte Nielsen as the entertainingly demented chief villain. Tim Abell is suitably sleazy as Grigori Babishkov but is overshadowed by the maidenly mercs kicking butts etc. That's entertainment.

A bigger budgeted sequel would be awesome but it will probably never happen now.
