Grade: C

I was really expecting this movie to be awful. The good news is that it’s not all that bad. The bad news is that it’s still not that good either.

It really is a complete rehash of the first movie but that shouldn’t surprise anyone. The movie was written by Luc Besson who is certainly talented but a bit predictable.

It was directed by Olivier Megaton who also directed *Columbiana* and *Transporter 3*. Neither of which are going to win any awards but they were also decent movies. I saw both of those movies and thought the director did a good enough job.

Liam Neeson is his usual bad-ass self. Calm under duress as always. I was slightly impressed with Maggie Grace who plays his daughter Kim. She’s improving as an actress. I think these action/drama roles are much more difficult to pull off that people think and she did okay.

Don’t miss your favorite movie moments because you have to pee or need a snack. Use the RunPee app (Androidor iPhone) when you go to the movies. We have Peetimes for all wide release films every week, including The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, Civil War, Monkey Man and coming soon Fall Guy, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, IF, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga and many others. We have literally thousands of Peetimes—from classic movies through today’s blockbusters. You can also keep up with movie news and reviews on our blog, or by following us on Twitter @RunPee. If there’s a new film out there, we’ve got your bladder covered.

Aspiring author. Would like to finish his “Zombie Revelations” trilogy if he could break away for working on RunPee and the cottage he’s building for RunPee Mom.
