The Condemned 2 (2015)

This film is not a sequel to the far better first feature. We do find out midpoint it was inspired by that film. This review may contain plot spoilers by some definition of that term, but it is a formula film, so the Hollywood outcome is predetermined.The feature opens up with "Tanner Bail Enforcer" bounty hunters going after a big score. We are shown the individuals as grindhouse/video game ID screen which gives us all their information except Charisma points. Will Tanner (Randy Orton) accidentally kills their bounty in self defense, but still takes a plea deal of involuntary manslaughter and gets a suspended sentence. Even his dad (Eric Roberts) doesn't understand it as son finds himself working for his dad's wreaking service.The film finally takes us to the meat of the plot as Will Tanner is hunted by his former team mates. It seems Raul (Steven Michael Quezada) who has taken over for the man Tanner killed has threatened the families etc. forcing his friends to turn on Tanner. The movie becomes a poor man's "Running Man" with a badly choreographed mine field sequence designed to be a highlight.The film is on the low side of action films. If watching Eric Roberts get punched in the face for all the stinker films he has been over billed, this one has it. I just wish they had hit him more. Now having said that, Eric Roberts wasn't half bad in this film, or at least compared to the other monotone "actors." If you are expecting something as good as the original, this is more like "Meatballs 2."Guide: Occasional F-bomb and acting. No sex or nudity.

The WWE made a direct-to-video sequel of their ripoff film of the Japanese cult classic "Battle Royale" that's painfully dull. No Steve Austin this time and instead the wrestler star is Randy Orton (I'm not familiar with him as a wrestler, but I do remember his dad, "Cowboy" Bob Orton). The original film stuck much closer to "Battle Royale," with unwitting victims finding themselves trapped on an island, wearing explosive collars, and then being told they have to kill each other in a set amount of time or all of their collars will explode. That was all straight out of Kinji Fukasaku's "Battle Royale," though I suppose one could argue that Fukasaku's film (based on a Japanese novel) was really a more violent update of "The Most Dangerous Game." However, the original Condemned, although derivative, was still entertaining and had some decent action. This sequel felt super cheap, especially the low budget desert setting where the competitors find themselves once again killing each other off for the entertainment of others. Eric Roberts and Wes Studi do some slumming, but they can't make this film worth watching or even watchable. Dullsville.

i swear i seriously need to punish myself for this sin. Sin of watching such a pathetic movie. i don't know what shall i say you guys. i downloaded this movie and kept it for Saturday night. thought it would really be good ... but it just backfired and my whole Saturday evening was ruined. and on top of all , i ended up fighting wid my girl , just cos i was frustrated that why did i watch this movie...if you really watch this movie now , even after such a caution , then i m sure that you will end up killing someone near you or will kill yourself...best of luck guys.

Plot Funny .acting Funny..Story Funny..Total Movie is a Bag of junk. The main villain of this movie looks like a street cheap jocker to me. And randy orton is a crap. Don't think that Austin is good Rock is good even Jhon cena was not bad that much so all the wrestler is good actor from WWE. The only good thing is production house LIONGATE . And I hope that such production house will not allow this kind of rubbish thing further . Because this kinda movie destroy the original flavor that we get from the Condemned .And still if you want to make such kind of thing please give it different nameNOTE: BTW It was impossible to finish the Movie after 32 mins for me.
