First and foremost, this reviewer is a fan. I actually have a JCVD pick on my IMDb list of all time best movies, a claim few other reviewers can make. But, to be fair, this film raises existential questions that need to be asked. For example, this is the sequel ... to what? To a very forgettable action flick called KILL EM ALL which appeared in 2017 and ranked a whopping 4.3 on the IMDb rating system. JCVD was in his late 50's for that film. His action sequences were OK (after all, he IS the man!) but the rest of the movie was mainly filler. So why would you want to do a sequel to a film that very few saw, and even fewer remember? Especially when you are 7 years older and, to be frank, it shows in the closeups? Especially when you swapped out both the Director and the Writer? Especially when the budget for the sequel looks and feels even tighter than in the original? Once again, after a lot of waffle, when JCVD decides finally to kill everyone with a pulse, he still has the moves. But getting there is painful. In the opinion of this reviewer, this project was done simply to service the demand for streaming content, with no higher aspiractions. The man deserves a fitter end to a great career.
