Moins-Que-Rien 2

Loved the first movie; it was unexpectedly great. This one was just mediocre. The action and fight scenes were pretty good and fun to watch. The story line could have been better, but the absolutely terrible acting from Sharon Stone, in all honesty, completely ruined the entire movie for me. I'm not sure if they were looking for a surprise big name for this role, but they completely missed the mark on casting.

Timo Tjahjanto's Nobody 2 is a relentless, bone-crunching sequel that doubles down on the first film's blend of suburban angst and bloody mayhem. This time, Bob Odenkirk's Hutch Mansell is on vacation, which of course becomes a backdrop for an insane series of creatively staged, over-the-top fight sequences. Tjahjanto, known for his work on action films like The Night Comes for Us, brings a distinct, stylized flair to the violence, turning the tranquil setting of a small town and an amusement park into a series of deadly playgrounds. The plot is thin and largely exists to string together these incredible set pieces, but that's not a criticism-the movie knows exactly what it is. It's a joyful, unpretentious action romp. The action is more outlandish and even more graphic than the original, with a dark, cartoonish sense of humor that differentiates it from the more grounded, noirish tone of the first film.

Some critics have noted that the sequel loses some of the original's gritty charm in favor of a more comedic, outlandish style, but praise the film for being an entertaining and satisfying follow-up.

Is it worth watching? If you're a fan of the first film and are looking for a fun, fast-paced action movie that doesn't take itself too seriously, then absolutely.

It's really just almost the same scenario as the first movie, just not executed as well... the boat scene is supposed to be the equivalent of the bus scene in the first movie, it's just not as good.

Same movie different, bad guys, lesser well executed fighting scenes, felt a bit lazy.

And there's not really any character evolution... I gave a 6 as it was still entertaining, and there's were scenes worth watching,

Why did we love the first movie?

It had a cool and mysterious hero. It was realistic, a little dark, and a little funny. There weren't many movies like the first one; it was almost unique.

This sequel, however, is a rather ordinary movie reminiscent of the 90s comedy-action films we've seen countless times before. Thanks to its 90-minute runtime, you won't get bored while watching it and you might even find some moments amusing. But that's all there is to it... This second movie offers nothing but empty and simplistic action scenes.

Feels a lot more like a routine sequel - bigger, louder, and packed with more brutal villains, action, and explosions, but with only an okay plot. The stakes never feel as gripping as they could be, and the comedy lands just fine but nothing more. Strong family vibes throughout, but the story is fairly predictable. Still a fun ride, just not as fresh as the first.
