So BAD...that it's funny!

Rating: 1/10 (31 May 2000)

Following the success of both the television series and the feature film from 1996, John Woo was given the opportunity to use his 'skill' as an action film director on the much anticipated sequel. The audience was delighted to see the film break an all-time record for use of slow-motion as well as one of the most drawn-out chase scenes ever recorded! Woo continued to keep the viewer in suspense with more masks than a really bad Scooby-Doo episode. Tom Cruise collects more air miles then the ill-fated plane seen in the films' opening sequence and the lead 'actress' has almost as many lines as the blonde kidnapper opposite Steve Buscemi in Fargo. Anthony Hopkins' performance is reduced to a few seconds cut subliminally into frames of Cruise and his co-stars dodging bullets while driving backwards down a cliff on motorcycles. The unforgettable finish to this masterpiece has some guy doing something. It truly was a treat.
