Kill'em All 2

This sequel is set seven years after the events of the first movie. Retired CIA spy Phillip (Jean-Claude Van Damme) and his daughter, Vanessa (Jacqueline Fernandez) are living off grid in small Italian village.

Now (Vlad Petrovic) has tracked them down. Now he wants revenge for the death of his Serb paramilitary warlord older brother Demitri who was killed by Phillip in the first movie.

Phillip finds himself on the run and allies himself with Holman (Peter Stormare.) Both used to work together but is Holman someone you can trust?

This is a weak action thriller. The script and action scenes do not amount to much. The scenery is nice.

You have to hand JCVD one thing. He really has taken a moral stance on the outcome of the breakup of the former Yugoslavia and the atrocities that were committed.

Plot: Phillip comes face to face with a Russian-French terrorist who comes exact vengeance on him for killing his brother.

Van Damme is back with a lot of Martial Arts Action but a little bit story.

Pro + A simple Story ( Revenge ) + Martial Arts Action well performed by JCVD + Good Gunplay + Italy Location at the beginning of the Movie

Contra

• Story you've seen 100 times
• You can clearly see the Stunt double for necessary things
• Sometimes too much violence

It's a good movie for JCVD Fans. For other people it's just another generic Action Flic. With a runtime of 85 minutes it's a quick snack and easily to watch.

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!

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.

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.
