If you thought the first one was bad, that one is Oscar worthy compared to this mess. This is the worst directing I have ever seen. Josh Sternfeld just kept filming ridiculous long dragged out and unnecessary scenes, of which at least half the length of the entire film needed to be cut out. His filming of the action scenes was so bad, when all you saw was two pairs of legs tripping over each other or a bunch of hands flailing around. Was this even edited, or the entire filmed scenes all pieced together uncut?
But even worse, was the most ridiculous screenplay I have ever seen. Alan Horsnail wrote in the laziest and cheesiest dialogue I have ever heard. The story was such utter nonsense, cliched and boring. It was riddled with plot and technical issues. Ninety percent of the entire 97 min runtime was all useless filler and irrelevant dialogue and scenes.
The pacing was so bad, the film felt like it was more than three hours long, and you'll end up begging for the ending credits. Who even funds and approves this nonsense? Even Kelly Greyson's Daisy Duke outfit was so cheese and out of place, we couldn't stop laughing. If it was meant to be a pleasant eye-candy distraction from how horrible this film was, it didn't work, it just added more cringe to the mess.
Casting and performances were adequate by most - including Bruce who was on par with the rest, except for Chad Michael Murray's annoying character, that made me want to fast-forward all his scenes. But I'm sure at least half the blame goes to Sternfeld, who clearly failed in directing his cast. The only redeeming quality of this film was the bearable score - which usually is annoyingly overbearing, constant, and unfitting. It's a very generous 2/10 from me, and I do mean generous.
