Skipped it in theatres due to the PG-13 rating and knowing we would see an unrated cut. Sly really screwed up by going with a lesser rating. Will blind buy.

I enjoyed this film so I'll pick it up. It wasn't as bad as a lot of people made it out to be and if you enjoyed the first two you'll likely like this one too.

Snipes and Banderas made this work as well as they could. So did Schwarzenegger, who was clearly just having fun and taking nothing seriously. As for the rest... meh.

Nice and 5 whole minutes as opposed to the seconds that normally get reinserted nowadays. I'll buy it for sure.

Re: The Expendables 3 - 11/25/14

it would be funny if most of the "unrated" footage turned out to be plot extensions and only about 10 seconds ended up being violence

I had a few minor issues with it, mainly the young Expendables. But it was still a fun movie. Sucks that it bombed this summer. I will pick this up.

Most of it will probably just be digital blood added to a few scenes, I would guess.

Re: The Expendables 3 - 11/25/14

Rented the Blu Ray last night and watched the Unrated version. It's not officially out yet, but I still have a rental store near me that I go to that puts out new movies up to 2 weeks before street date.

The Unrated Cut runs about 5 minutes longer, but honestly I couldn't really tell the difference. There may have been a few small scene extensions with added blood, but it was hard to tell. 5 minutes of extra content spread out over a 131 minute movie is not easy to identify.

Didn't have time to watch the 1 hour documentary on the movie, but I'll get this eventually and try to see it. Noticed there was no commentary track this time around.

Pretty much. Nothing major changed from what I could tell.

Movie-Censorship.com hasn't published a comparison yet, so I can't give any specific instances.
