On Christmas day, Netflix gifted action movie lovers the latest revenge tale, Kill 'em All 2, starring Jean-Claude Van Damme. Despite turning 65 this year, The Muscles from Brussels still has the balletic grace and acrobatic maneuvering fans have come to know and love since the 1980s. The story continues seven years after the 2017 action thriller Kill 'em All left off, pitting Jcvd's Philip against a ruthless Franco-Russian terrorist hell-bent on revenge.

Kill 'em All 2 introduces new characters not in the original, including a mysterious figure named Vanessa (Jaqueline Fernandez). While drips and drabs of background info come to light in the film, it's easy to miss how she relates to the main plot. As such, it's time to highlight Vanessa in Kill 'em All 2 and discuss who she is, her role, and how her relationship with Philip (Jcvd) informs the story.

Van Damme, who is, of course, best known for the likes of such action movie fare as Kickboxer, Bloodsport, Street Fighter, Universal Solider, and many more, leads the sequel Kill 'Em All 2, which finds the “Muscles from Brussels” as a spy who must face off with a terrorist who has come seeking revenge.

As per a report by What’s on Netflix, Kill ‘Em All 2 “will stream on Netflix in the United States as part of the Sony Pictures first window deal for 18 months," landing on the platform just in time to make the perfect festive family viewing.

Prominently placed at the start of a very long final credit crawl is what may go down in motion picture history as one of the most misguided displays of somber self-congratulation ever: “John Travolta Is Moose. ‘The Fanatic.’ A Fred Durst Film.” Given that this is a movie that starts with an onscreen-text quote from its own bad dialogue, the clueless hubris is no longer surprising by that point. Still,

For starters, it is the worst Travolta vehicle in some time, and coming just a year after the double whammy of “Gotti” and “Speed Kills,” that is really saying something. It also finds him entering that unfortunate pantheon of presumably well-intentioned performances of differently-abled characters that somehow emerge a compendium of the most cringe-inducing clichés of people with limited faculties.
