The Condemned 2 review

Posted : 8 years, 5 months ago on 7 November 2015 09:11

Thoughts before I watched this.
1. I had no idea they made another Condemned.
2. The first one is one of my favorite guilty pleasures.
3. I enjoyed the concept and the cheesiness.
4. This was directed by Roel Reine who is known for directing sequels.
5. He usually doesn't make very good one or just average.
6. The only good one in my opinion was Death Race 3.
7. It's written by Alan B. McElroy who has done many films including Spawn, The Wrong Turn series, and the 1st and 4th entries of The Marine series.
8. The trailer looks to be a bit cheesier than the original.
9. The cast is a mixed bag with Randy Orton, Wes Studi, and Eric Roberts.
10. I doubt it will be as fun as the first, but I will try to be hopeful.

"A former bounty hunter who finds himself on the run as part of a revamped Condemned tournament, in which convicts are forced to fight each other to the death as part of a game that's broadcast to the public."

Thoughts while I watched this.
1. Wes Studi is sounding pretty cheesy.
2. Oh this isn't how I expected it to start.
3. Hmm interesting I wonder how the actual "game" will begin.
4. Oh man this is a more twisted game than the people killing each other for a chance at freedom.
5. How did no one notice that?
6. Wow that was messed up.
7. Now I see how the whole thing happens to come about.
8. Wait Eric Roberts is playing a good guy's dad?
9. Okay nevermind I don't know what is going to happen.
10. Nice legs ladies lol.
11. Oh what're the chances?
12. Interesting was kind of expecting that, but why is it even happening?
13. Some of the fighting here feels so staged.
14. That doesn't seem like logical reasoning given the circumstances.
15. Okay I think I get the scenario this time around.
16. It's vastly different from the original in the way it works the concept.
17. I don't see how he managed to do that so quickly.
18. It did look cool though.
19. It seems a bit like The Running Man and Turkey Shoot among others.
20. Damn that was brutal!
21. Can anybody really be trusted?
22. Yeah some of this acting is pretty bad.
23. How the hell did he notice that?
24. Oh man this should be interesting.
25. This music makes me feel like I'm watching a comedy.
26. Wasn't expecting that to happen.
27. I was however expecting that.
28. Since he ran away in the beginning I highly doubt he will stand a chance taking Will on his own.
29. Haha Raul that is something I would say.
30. Damn that was hardcore!
31. The ending was pretty cheesy.

Thoughts after I watched.
1. It was entertaining, but nowhere near as fun as the original.
2. The acting and dialogue is pretty cheesy.
3. I think the action was alright, although it could have been better.
4. There were a few pretty great moments and ideas.
5. I think Wes Studi got killed quickly because they probably couldn't afford him for too long.
6. I wouldn't say this is a cash cow though since the first one wasn't even that popular either.
7. They just wanted to expand the universe I guess.
8. I thought it was a decent one time watch.
9. I don't think it will be everyone's cup of tea unless you're bored and don't mind some cheese with your movies.
