eXpendables (2005)

From the introduction: Expendables are skilled convicts serving out their sentences by performing highly dangerous missions in return for the Galactic Republic coummuting their sentence. The unfortunate truth is that Expendables rarely survive long enough to benefit from this commution, but those who choose this course do so because the short life of an Expendable is of better quality than any length of life in prison and for the chance at an early parole (if they survive that long).
