It is seven years after the first movie. Phillip (Jean-Claude Van Damme) and Vanessa (Jacqueline Fernandez) are living out their lives in peace until the brother of the Serbian crime lord comes looking for revenge. Agent Sanders (Maria Conchita Alonso) and Agent Holman (Peter Stormare) are also back.

First, Autumn Reeser is not returning. It's just as well. She could probably use the time to do another Hallmark movie. Without a good twist, this one only has its action to elevate it. The action is fine and going through the narrow European streets is fun. Otherwise, this franchise is out of moves.

Vlad seeks revenge on Philip for killing his brother and despite the agency allowing Philip to vanish digitally, his location is leaked to Vlad. Escaping the gang, Philip along with his daughter Vanessa visit their village only to find Vlad had already paid a visit. Philip decides to end this mess which he brought upon his people and he teams up with ex Agent Holman to hit Vlad where it hurts him the most. Will Philip and Vanessa stop Vlad and his men, saving their home, forms rest of the story.

The first film itself was a tedious watch and this one barely has a story. It is the done to death revenge story with exactly 3 action scenes with 2 chase scenes merged into them and with age catching up, none of the action scenes featuring Van Damme are long enough to deliver his usual fun elements. The characters are pretty much one toned and Peter Stormare goes annoyingly overboard as Holman which is pointed out within the film itself. After the first action scene, the film drags itself till the supposed heist, building up for an action filled climax but the efforts are simply not enough to raise the bar above boredom.

I guess All of 'Em weren't killed the first time around after all. Jean-Claude OldMan, his Electra-complex daughter and some simple villagers from the Flemish part of Slovenia team up to take on some Russian mafia ... vampires? Maybe?

JCVD and/or his stuntman still has the chops to sell some of the action and the script isn't entirely formulaic (only mostly formulaic); but this mashup between revenge action and heist movie still feels small, cheap and rushed. There are low stakes and no arcs for the cardboard characters. Peter Stormaire delivers possibly the worst performance of his storied career. Overall this feels like a throwback to mid-1990s straight-to-video content. Unfortunately it's less of a fun, campy throwback and more like something from The Steven Segal Collection gathering cobwebs in a forgotten corner of Blockbuster Video.

Sadly I this was not as good as the first and it does not even really flow with the story. The actress that plays his daughter is horrible and made no sense in the store especially since she came out of no wear and does not even look like him, at least get a actress that made sense and she was a horrible at acting. I miss seeing Autumn in this movie. Such a let down with bad back story and little story flow. JCV was great in the movie but that's it. They needed to do better with having the storyline flow together and make sense as the why things are happening this way and what happened to Autumn character. So sad for a part 2.

First of all let me say I have always liked Jean Claude. Usually his movies are pretty entertaining. But when I started to watch this one I was extremely disappointed. I don't know why they used an very untalented amateur cameraman. The extreme close ups the bouncing of the camera, etc. I mean when they bounce a camera in an attempt to give the feeling of people bouncing while riding in a car or when people are fighting and you shake the camera to an extent it makes the audience dizzy. These are signs of not only a very very poorly made movie but one with a budget of about twenty dollars. If I was Jean Claude I would demand the movie be deleted before his entire reputation is ruined. Where does the cameraman, director or whoever makes these decisions get the dumb idea that filming very close up or shaking a camera gives good affects? These are people that should NOT be making decisions period. I tried to watch the whole movie, I really did, but I just could not. I got tired of being forced to look at people's pores or watching people shaking all over the screen until it made me dizzy. When I take photos of people I try my best to center them in the picture without cutting off their body parts but with this movie they consistently removed the tops of their heads. My advice, BACK UP!
