In Nobody 2, we find ourselves once again in the warm, flannel-clad embrace of Hutch Mansell, a man who has perfected the art of passive aggression with his knuckles. The sequel, a cinematic equivalent of a high-stakes, family-friendly holiday brawl, sees our hero trying to take a well-deserved break. Because, as everyone knows, the only thing more relaxing than a quiet week at home is a trip to a disfy run down theme park with your incredibly dangerous father and a son who has clearly inherited the "I can't believe I'm related to these people" gene.

The film's plot is deceptively simple: Hutch and his family go to a place called Plummerville, which, for some reason, is not a town where everyone is a plumber. Instead, it's a hotbed of corruption, featuring a villain so delightfully over-the-top that you can almost smell the mustache-twirling. Sharon Stone joins the cast, proving that even as a crime boss, she's still the most intimidating person in the room. You just know she's the kind of villain who uses a rusty spoon as a weapon, and not in a cool, martial arts way, but in a "I'm going to make this last all day" kind of way.

The action sequences are, of course, where the film truly shines. It's less a fight scene and more a ballet of blunt-force trauma. The bus fight from the first film? That's a gentle tickle compared to what happens when Hutch gets his hands on a poorly maintained churro cart. The comedy comes not from punchlines, but from the sheer, bloody absurdity of the violence. It's the kind of movie where a character gets hit in the head with a rubber duck and you genuinely wonder if they'll survive.

So, is Nobody 2 worth the ticket price? Absolutely. It's a sequel that delivers more of what we loved from the first, while still managing to feel fresh. It's a reminder that sometimes the best way to solve your problems is with a well-aimed punch, and that the only thing worse than a family holiday is a family holiday where the theme park operator is a homicidal maniac.

Rating: Four out of five perfectly placed uppercuts.

Yes I did go into this blind! I thought it would be in a similar vein to other Knoxville movies but it was a very sombre drama. But there was no spark, where was the soundtrack? Music would have made this movie much better and a few good jokes! Why wasn't there any jokes? Theo and Bobby Lee and no jokes? Doesn't make sense I know it's a depressing story but come on it needed some spark! Was a hard watch for me but I didn't turn it off at least!
