Things blowing up, cheesy catch phrases, physics defying stunts in unbelievable situation. Sprinkled with lots of explosions and action. Looks like a summer blockbuster to me. How can you go wrong?

It's got Chuck Norris. Even if it is only a cameo, that has to be worth the price of admission. They've got all the action stars I can think of in it. It's popcorn fun at its best!

I had really low expectations when I watched the first one on Netflix, but I really enjoyed it. Not Shakespeare by any means, but it was funny in places and the action was great. Jason Statham's always a good bet.

Hmmm, maybe I will watch the first one later tonight.

One of the best comments I ever saw on the internet was shortly after the poster was revealed:

"That should be the new American Flag."

I think I'll wait until it hits Netflix instant. That should happen in less time than it takes for Chuck to regurgitate a catch phrase. I don't have the money to be wasting at the movies anyway.

Sad thing is, Dolph, Jean Claude, Jet Li, Jason Statham, Arnold-? Not from 'Merica.

Do I really have to say it? Fine then... Bruce Campbell is WAY overrated.

Looking to go with some friends soon. I watched the first one the day it came out with my friend Woodsie for his birthday. Maybe Monday.

Throw in Campbell, Don Johnson and Kenny powers and call it a day.

I saw some article saying that they are already talking about doing a third movie and they are trying to add Harrison Ford, Nicholas Cage and Wesley Snipes to the line up.

^This... then let him and Van Damme go at it.

Also... add that Dudekoff guy (American Ninja?) and let him and Chuck Norris go at it.

Wait, what? Why the berkeley would they even consider him? I would take the offspring of Bruce Campbell and Kenny Powers before I would consider that dude for a movie like this.

My thoughts on this movie:

"I'LL TAKE MINE WITH EXTRA CHEESE PLEASE!"

And I loved it. It was so cheesy it was good. Better than the first one by far.

Yeah that one kinda made me scratch my head. I mean the guy has been in plenty of action movies but he just doesn't fit with those other guys. Harrison Ford is also getting up there for doing action rolls.

Harrison Ford is too old, but Norris is not? Norris is 72 years old!

Well, ok... He's Norris!

Nicholas Cage is a baby by comparison (48 years old).

Actually, while it is a screaming cast, it's a pretty geriatric bunch. Scott Adkins is the only one in his 30's. After that, the average age of the cast is over 55.

Saw it last night. It was great if you like things that go boom and a plot that is nearly non-existant. I liked it for what it was. There were some really cheesy lines tho.

I had no idea Jet Li was almost 50. Jesus. And Chuck is 72? Holy CRAP!
