accept it for what it is and it should be a good time

Rating: Null/10 (19 August 2012)

Big, bad, in-your-face sequel chronicles Barney Ross and his motley, roughneck crew as they're reluctantly recruited by the enigmatic Mr. Church to complete their latest assignment. What begins as a routine mission quickly turns into a personal vendetta when a deadly rival intercepts them. Toss logic, character development, and a "plot" about weapons-grade plutonium aside; this macho, energetic, mindlessly entertaining action flick knows just how to please its target audience with rough and tough action sequences, cheesy one-liners, clever in-jokes, gratuitous casting, and amusingly over-the-top violence. Inevitable climactic showdown is a bit underwhelming, but any concoction that can put Rambo, Lionheart, John McClane, Terminator, and Walker, Texas Ranger all in the same film is sure to be some fun. **½
