The Expendables.
Some parts were plain awful in this film, but it made me laugh. Some of the fighting was well executed, though.
I felt it was Stallone's mid-life (more towards 60 actually) crisis, but also like a synthesis of action films such as Predator and Commando.
The Schwarzy cameo was one of my favourite bits: I find he delivers better than Stallone, who tends to mumble and ramble.
Jason Statham did a good job in this film, too.
I still think Gran Torino is a better film directed and starring an aging action movie actor.

I might know why Stallone's beard looked out of place: I think it's because he dyed it. I noticed in one shot of the film it was pepper going onto grey, whereas in most close-ups and others it was jet-black.

Cowboys and Aliens:
Shockingly, not the worst thing I've ever seen. Rather enjoyable, really.

yep, just saw Cowboys and Aliens too
Really solid movie, surprisingly not stupid or visually exhausting.

I started watching The Green Hornet.
35 minutes of "wtf am I watching" (in the bad way) later, I threw the disc out.

The aliens in Cowboys and Aliens were pretty retarded for advanced creatures.
[spoiler]Also that scene where she comes out of the fire naked was stupid.[/spoiler]
But it was pretty fun. I liked it.
