Usual stuff, does nothing new

Rating: 5/10 (30 July 2016)

This movie does not offer any surprises. The plot is linear, no turns in sight; it's as if the original film has been remade. Lots of shooting, car chases, people dropping dead; it's the usual fare. Neeson looks good, sounds good, and shoots good. He is like the unkillable hulk, just like the first movie. The other actors don't have much to do. They are either running, shooting, or fainting. Unlike the first movie, this does not have any memorable dialogues, not for me. If you just want to see an action flick, or if you haven't seen the first movie, you can go for this one, but don't expect too much. If you have seen the first one, maybe you can leave this one out.
