Highly expecting this to be just a so-so sequel and not expect much, I was entertained to say the least. The story has Luc Deveraux supportive of the UniSol program despite his terrible experience in the last movie. This doesn't jibe well with the previous movie, not to mention it's a great occupational hazard for Luc as it usually involves being chased around by dead soldiers in field tests. Some scenes remind you of other movies, for example, the the scene where two people are discussing about pulling the plug on the UniSol project evokes 2001: A Space Odyssey. And the battle between Luc and SETH ended kinda like what happened in Demolition Man.
I need not mention that subplots like Luc's wife are introduced but dropped anyway. The ending really disappointed me as it, of course, involves the destruction of UniSols. It's not their second deaths that bugged me, it's the lack of an epilogue to let audience know it's over or what these characters think of the whole ridiculous situation.
The verdict: 2.5 of 5 stars.
