As mediocre as the first film

Rating: Null/10 (31 January 2009)

If you liked the first one, you will enjoy this sequel. Cage and his friends race across the world solving difficult clues in a matter of seconds while fending off the bad guys, a bunch of Southern Confederates! I found the film preposterous though watchable. The villains are incompetent, the action sequences belabored, and the plot holes simply too big to ignore. Cage looks weird with his toupee. A pleasant addition to the cast is Helen Mirren who adds a touch of class to the proceedings. Otherwise, everyone seems to be there mainly for the pay check. Thoroughly mediocre.
Overall 4/10
