the smartest part of this whole scene is Stallone's reaction at the end. no horrible one liner or come back to try and break the tension. No screams of anguish, no other speeches about Barney's own regrets. quietly turns and walks away. That silence at the end of the monologue is what really ratchets the impact up a few notches.
Mickie had one shot to regain his humanity (his soul) back from all the past killings in his line of work but he hesitated. Hence why he's so depressed when talking about the incident.
Best part about that scene is when mickey rourke stops himself from crying wouldn’t even call that acting I would say it’s from deep inside the soul. Great scene
Something I love about Rourke’s acting here is the dialogue. How he delivers it, with the slight stuttering and repeating of certain phrases. It’s just like how human beings *actually* talk in situations like that. And it is beautiful.
Words weren’t necessary, because he’d already made up in his mind what he knew he had to do next. He didn’t want to make the same mistake... I feel that.
The lighting in this scene is perfect. Rourkes character is seeped in dark and blue neon, mirroring his feelings: no chance of redemption, cold and dead. In contrast to Stallone who is in warm light despite the darkness, hinting at a chance for redemption.
Very good spotting. I was too busy been transfixed on Mickey’s performance: dark, haunting, and cold. I think this is why I loved this movie. The second was good, but this movie was the best
The shake in O'Rourke's voice when he talks about their men getting chopped up and the woman jumping just complete this monologue. You can tell he is barely holding it together when recounting these memories.
That’s part of the appeal of him NOT being bright back tho. I’ve always said that when this point of view is taken: We wanted Maximus, William Wallace, and so many others to make it. But it’s their death that holds so much more meaning. Their loss makes concrete what we loved about them in the first place.
One of the finest monologues ever delivered, by one of the finest moments in a great actor's career. Stallone deserves immense credit for his writing, and Rourke could not have performed this any better. Hugely powerful and easily the best scene of the film.
I think Darron Aronofsky had alot to do with it. He was fresh off the wrester which was in my opinion his best performance by miles. He straight up told mickey that that movie would put him back on top and it did. He broke him down to the bone to get that performance. He didnt even pay him if memory serves. This was mickeys next project and it was still carrying that weight. Its insane how great this scene is. It was waaaaaay better than this muscle movie warranted. It was a stellar showcase in what was otherwise a by the numbers action movie which is by no means a slight. It was what it was meant to be. Mickeys performance here elevated it by 100% id say. its just a shame he didnt keep it up. He fell right back down that rabbit hole of accepting whatever role he could get and buried himself again. Sad ending for an AMAZING actor.
Same. You can see it with his acting in recent years with newer roles. It's the one I'll always love and think WHAT IF with Rourke. To me, NO BS, He is the Brando of this past generation and the drink and drugs destroyed it all coming to the screen. He just has a gift. Even watching the Wrestler I cried big time cos that was really his life story in a round about way.
Perfect example of what is called "Moral Injury". Beating himself up for not doing something he knows he should have done. Can't go back and change the past but can't get past it either. Still wracked with guilt and shame for his actions/inactions. So many of our veterans struggle with this same issue. Learning to forgive one's self is the only way forward. Can be a long path but so necessary. And, of course, what a powerful performance by Mickey Rourke... so very well done.
@@negan_the_savior7865 Thanks brother. I'm an Air Force chaplain (Reserve) and full time chaplain with the VA. I work with veterans every day dealing with this very issue.

There's a ton of amazing acting going on in and outside of Hollywood. Your fringe political beliefs are convincing you otherwise, which means you're some right-wing media icon's puppet. Condolences.
@@cogitaretoo outside of Hollywood yeah there is some amazing acting. But inside? Not that much. Most big actors either just play the same kind of role over and over or are just completely bland and monotone, or sometimes it's both. Because there's no effort anymore. A lot of great actors have gone to do smaller indie projects. Also, who are you to say "fringe political beliefs"? He didn't even say anything polticial. In fact if anything you're the one that looks political. It's a fact that Hollywood is corrupt as fuck. Ignoring that is just being delusional.
@@rtmis1 Hollywood is shite but people are pretending they are baby eating satanists that are worse than Hitler when they are no less bad than the major corporations which destroy the planet and people have nothing to say about that. People are just mad that Hollywood doesn't affirm their personal political biases. Has nothing to do with any real convictions
Barney's reaction at the end, his silence, just boosts Rourke's monologue. I'm positive that Stallone, like any true Rourke fan, knew what was coming when he wrote this, but even if he didn't his reaction is perfect. Stallone doesn't get the credit he deserves for instincts like that, but goddamn I'm sure that watching Rourke helped a lot!
Mickey Rourke is a great actor... We want to see him again in big budget films! We want to see him collaborating with big directors like Scorsese, Tarantino, Stone etc. Cinema needs Mickey Rourke.
Hollywood doesn't like him because he's not a puppet like most others. He doesn't take shit from the higher ups. Also if you look at Rourke's filmography nowadays, it's kind of a weird mixed bag. Some of the films he picks aren't good and others are great. Night Walk from 2019 was apparently fucking great. And that upcoming Man of God film where he plays a paralyzed man looks pretty good as well.
Agreed, it was a scene that woulda made the Academy very hungry if it wasn't for the film and genre it was in. They tend to be biased. This scene was pure masterclass in performance and directing.
I hope they didn't cut Mickey cuz of this scene... it's so heartbreaking and tells a lot about the Expendables team. They are what they are because of their past. None of us will ever understand the hell soldiers go through.
Man, I think Mickey Rourke was born for scenes like these. This monologue, the one near the end of “Spun” (totally underrated movie IMO), so many moments in “The Wrestler,” etc. really good stuff.
An amazing scene. Get the notion that this was from the soul from Rourke. A great actor but sometimes, u can just tell within a particular scene that it is more than the "moment." More than lights, camera, action. No this was something deeper. Something of an anecdote from his life, at one point in time. Great nevertheless. I turn 30 this Friday--Crazy how "it" just hits different as an adult. 10 years later. Relatable, authentic. Simply Life
Well, if this isn't the best scene in the movie... Great dialogue, and delivered so exceptionally. I sure do Love Rourke. He was my favorite actor for a good tens years or so. I would get excited any time one of his movies came out. It was like waiting for one of Rakim's albums to drop, you knew you were going to witness some special, an artist at the peak of his ability, and you just hoped the material would do, what he could do with it, justice. It doesn't always. Angle Heart was my favorite movie for easily a decade, still one of my all time favorites. Think I first saw him in Pope of Greenwich Village and I was 14. Good memories. It isn't until you're older that you appreciate all of the people who played a part in all of the good things you remember Now, once they've long been put in your rearview. You don't see them that way as much, when you are in the moment of experiencing them. No, you need to put some time and distance in order to look at it with the right set of eyes, it's a lot like how you might remember a girl you once loved. You don't see it for what it really is, until it gets away from you, like everything that gets away from you. The only good thing about age and time is you have plenty of it- to remember it, how it's suppose to be remembered, with time and distance. Anywho, thanks for everything Mickey.
This was the best scene of the movie because there was no unnecessary explosions or corny one liners just a professional who shows why he’s been in the business for decades.
This acting here is at a much higher caliber than the rest of the movie. It's almost like it was lifted from a serious Academy Award winning drama and plopped accidentally into a routine action/exploitation movie lol.
Mickey Rourke should return as tool in the next Expendables. He should come back full circle to fight and die alongside his brothers in arms. Stallone should give him the speech that Colonel trautman in Rambo 3 gave to Rambo about coming full circle.
Sometimes stars who are regarded as average/mediocre, poor or even downright bad actors have a scene - at least one; sometimes only one but at least one - which you can show to people and say: "There, look; that's how good they can actually be - don't tell me he (or she) can't act again." With Stallone it was the end of First Blood; with Rourke it's this one.
Lots of people think Rourke is nuts for wasting the prime of his acting career trying to box and smashing his Hollywood face to pieces. Those people often say he could have been America's greatest actor since Marlon Brando. I've heard him called crazy lots of times. Never heard anyone say he was a bad actor.
I will never feel the thrill that the writer of this monologue felt after writing this, and then watching Mickey Rourke speak the words in an academy award worthy take. But at least I can watch it in wonder \m/ \m/
A great scene. Rourke nails the delivery and Stallone's reaction at the end mirrors what Rourke regrets doing to the woman he's talking about. Brilliant piece of writing.
We start off good and strong. We realize that life is horrible and it’s too hard to be good in a dark place, so we go dark, and weak. Sometimes we see opportunities to be good and strong , but it’s too hard, and our weakness breaks our heart
People like to shit on Stallone and Rourke and so many old school actors and it's scenes like this that show they still have it acting and writing and directing wise
Mickey is gone now, only plaztic face, but he had some really good moments in the past, this scene in Expendables, The Wrestler,... I even enjoyed him in Once Upon A Time In Mexico , everything for that dog :D
One of the greatest scenes ever in movies. He misnamed drink most likely Rakia. I always loved this movie and wondered about the drink and I got to try in December.
Haven't watched this or any of these films in years. Many years. Suddenly this part pops in my head, the only part that usually does and actually left an impression. Didn't take much searching to find. Didn't take long to remember why. This scene is fucking beautiful and couldn't have been done any better.
This monologue brings home a stark realisation. They don't write monologues like this any more... and there's certainly no-one allowed by the Hollywood machine to act with this depth any more. Is this the end of an era?
Uhhh, what lol. This movie is like 10 years old and they've had plenty of monologue since then. This is a very recent movie lmao. Every movie that comes out isn't on Netflix's front page kiddo.
@@WhatIsItReallyAbout You didn't even make a point idiot, lmao. "I'm right and you're wrong." That's literally all you said you actual incel, how stupid can someone be? I hope you lose a loved one this year, kiddo. ;)
@@WhatIsItReallyAbout "You've just proved." Nice English there kiddo, lmao. Why do 15 year olds like you get so defensive when someone points out how obvious it is?
A lot of people will just write these movies off as just dumb, old star, muscle-head, blow shit up action flicks. But it's scenes like this that say, "wait a second, wait a second....there's is more."
Sometimes we forget that Rourke is a fucking amazing actor and I always forget that he really shows his chops in this scene, and he’s practically a cameo.
the smartest part of this whole scene is Stallone's reaction at the end. no horrible one liner or come back to try and break the tension. No screams of anguish, no other speeches about Barney's own regrets. quietly turns and walks away. That silence at the end of the monologue is what really ratchets the impact up a few notches.
You said it. I've seen so many things about but at the end this scene just simply elevated the whole thing
Mickie had one shot to regain his humanity (his soul) back from all the past killings in his line of work but he hesitated. Hence why he's so depressed when talking about the incident.
Best part about that scene is when mickey rourke stops himself from crying wouldn’t even call that acting I would say it’s from deep inside the soul. Great scene
Kinda like Rourkes character is beyond helping at this point and Barney is staring down the barrell at the same fate
Are you serious? This acting is laughable.
Something I love about Rourke’s acting here is the dialogue. How he delivers it, with the slight stuttering and repeating of certain phrases. It’s just like how human beings *actually* talk in situations like that. And it is beautiful.
Spot on mate.
Mickey Rourke Back In The 80s Was Thought To Be The Next Marlon Brando. Mickey Is So Good, I Don't Think He Realizes Just How Good He Is.
Scene become more powerful when Stallone just decided to not to say a thing and walk away
I think Sly wrote it. Mickey was brilliant
Ice man he wrote it, but he had originally a line, walking away was improvised by Sly, according to Mickey during an interview. Genius.
Words weren’t necessary, because he’d already made up in his mind what he knew he had to do next. He didn’t want to make the same mistake... I feel that.
Totally
There's nothing sly could say ,mickey just nailed it
The lighting in this scene is perfect. Rourkes character is seeped in dark and blue neon, mirroring his feelings: no chance of redemption, cold and dead. In contrast to Stallone who is in warm light despite the darkness, hinting at a chance for redemption.
Very good spotting. I was too busy been transfixed on Mickey’s performance: dark, haunting, and cold. I think this is why I loved this movie. The second was good, but this movie was the best
As an artist I just wondered how he could paint in such poor lighting conditions 😂
The shake in O'Rourke's voice when he talks about their men getting chopped up and the woman jumping just complete this monologue. You can tell he is barely holding it together when recounting these memories.
What a great moment in this movie. This is as good as acting gets.
They should've brought Mickey back, biggest mistake that series made was not keeping some serious actors in the mix.
His face and body changed dramatically from 2009 to 2012 would’ve been out of place.
Agreed.
That’s part of the appeal of him NOT being bright back tho.
I’ve always said that when this point of view is taken: We wanted Maximus, William Wallace, and so many others to make it. But it’s their death that holds so much more meaning. Their loss makes concrete what we loved about them in the first place.
a very epic monologue from Mickey Rourke. Brings tears to my eyes every time I watch it.
amen to that man!
Idk about tears, but certainly goosebumps, and yes, every time
One of the finest monologues ever delivered, by one of the finest moments in a great actor's career. Stallone deserves immense credit for his writing, and Rourke could not have performed this any better. Hugely powerful and easily the best scene of the film.
“What dried up?”
“Just belief man…just belief in the soul”
Best scene in the whole movie
very true brother thats true life that happens
lol it's a low bar
Mickey Rourke has had a pretty crazy life himself. I think he dug into that for this scene.
That what I was thinking to. Great scene ant great act.👍👍👍

Mickey Rourke is a better actor than he's given credit for. This scene is a testament to that.
Ptsd perfectly felt in one scene
Mickey Rourke is a great actor... We want to see him again in big budget films! We want to see him collaborating with big directors like Scorsese, Tarantino, Stone etc. Cinema needs Mickey Rourke.
I think back in the 1990s he got blacklisted because he said this movie director sucked who happand to be Jewish

Beautiful scene. To me, the best in the film.
Mickey chews up scenery and his monologues are brutal no one can out act him cuz he gets too real
This is like if prime Brando had a cameo in a direct-to-video film.
Leave it to Mr Rourke to do the best scene of the whole franchise...
Gave me CHILLS and INSPIRATION at the same time...not too many moments like these
I understand money came in between Mickey being in the sequel but man... that scene put soul into the franchise.
Not the franchise. Just the expendables 1. Expendables 2 was hot garbage, and I didn't bother seeing the 3rd one since 2 was a fuckfest

Best Scene in all of ecpendables

Mickey Rourke should return as tool in the next Expendables. He should come back full circle to fight and die alongside his brothers in arms. Stallone should give him the speech that Colonel trautman in Rambo 3 gave to Rambo about coming full circle.
This type of emotion was what the sequels were lacking.

mickey you fucking rock
Damn ! you mickey Rourke .
I remember seeing this and being surprised , and was like damn that was deep for this type of movie! Great scene!
The best part about Stallone walking away and saying nothing is that you can see by the look on his face he knew what he needed to do.
When an actor pulls you in like that. They got it. Mickey Rourke is the shit
I'm touched and I'm sorry for not doing the right things I should do in my life !

Sometimes we forget that Rourke is a fucking amazing actor and I always forget that he really shows his chops in this scene, and he’s practically a cameo.
Shit just blew my mind
Mickey was awesome in this film,even though his role was limited. It really sucks that he didn’t return to the franchise.
MAGISTRALE !!
Its a major part of Mickey Rourke recovery
