Sylvester Stallone heads an incredible cast in this action thriller about the ultimate mercenary crew on the ultimate mission.

Barney Ross (Sylvester Stallone) leads a tight-knit band of battle-hardened mercenaries including ex-SAS man Lee Christmas (Jason Statham), close-quarters combat master Yin Yang (Jet Li), weapons specialist Hale Caesar (Terry Crews), demolitions expert Toll Road (Randy Couture) and sniper Gunnar Jensen (Dolph Lundgren). When the team embark on a mission to overthrow murderous dictator General Gaza (David Zayas), Barney and Christmas meet their contact, local freedom-fighter Sandra (Giselle Itie). They also learn their true enemy is rogue ex-CIA man James Monroe (Eric Roberts) and his henchman Paine (Steve Austin). When things go terribly wrong, Barney and Christmas are forced to leave Sandra behind, essentially giving her a death sentence. Haunted by this failure, Barney convinces the team to go back - to rescue the hostage, finish the job and maybe even save his soul.
