Carries The Tradition

Rating: 8/10 (19 March 2017)

I am always apprehensive about viewing sequels to films I love. Hollywood's trend of destroying everything that attracted me to a movie has scarred me. Examples such as The Expendables 3 and The Mechanic 2 are recent ones that come to mind.
That being said I was pleasantly surprised with this entry. It expanded on the curiosity-grabbing sub-culture of the hotel from the first film. They wisely kept Keanu in his element...not speaking much, just kicking, punching, and shooting. It actually felt like an extension of the first movie. I am looking forward to the third, and hopefully final film. Baba Yaga.
