my favorite movie

All the old school action stars from the 80s are back in one flick. Plot holes galore. Weak action one-liners. The only good thing about it is that it was better than the first one.

It lacks plot and dialog. If you just want to see action scenes, one-liners from heroes from other action films, and not much else, this is the film for you.

One of the best films I have seen in this year. It was entertaining and interesting. Great performances a must see for all. Truly a really great movie worth the long library wait or the price to rent from a Red Box. Well worth the price of admission to any theater.

(4 out of 5 stars)... First rate 'action-comedy' fun. Delivers intense authentic cartoon combat,.. with a delightful relish of self-referential humor.

4 stars if you like action movies that do not take themselves too seriously but do not cheat the viewer either. It would not be 4 stars however without that amazingly huge cast of pro action hero old timers. It was a great idea. The central plot point was stupid beyond belief, but once you get past it, which is easy enough, things roll along nicely in a mindlessly violent fun way. And the previous comment is dead on, Jet Li stole the show in his too brief role.

More fun than I thought it would be. Love Jet Li and the frying pans.

Terrible story line. But don't let that get in the way. Lots of action. Funny one-liners. Every old action hero actor you can think of is in this movie. But definately a "guy" movie.

I actually enjoyed this one much more than I did the first. Perhaps because Sly didn't direct this time. The one liners from Ahnold, Bruce, and Chuck were welcomed comic relief, breaking up the monotonous shooting, grunting, and explosions. Van Damme made a good villain.
