Seeing how there have been over 300 review of this film on here to date, I won't make this review a long one. This masterpiece is simply GREAT. The beginning and end are loaded with incredibly gratuitous action, with a notable amount mixed in. The humor is terrific. The best thing about this film, however, are the direct homages.
Bruce Willis was just like Mcclaine, Arnold like the Terminator, and Van Damme like the pure badass he once was. They all get a rebirth in this KING of all action movies. None of those, however, match up with the pure glee all action fans got from the Chuck Norris moments. From his entrance scene, to the Norris joke references, and all the moments he got to unleash hell. This is what we were expecting from the 1st film(which was also terrific), but it's great that we get it now. I could add more, but this is good enough.
While there will never be an action film that consists of as much epicness overall, I sure hope there's more coming, because these movies are better than any of the other rehashed superhero junk Hollywood is spewing out . I've seen it about 10 times, and for each viewing, I must give this gem a 10/10.
