While the first movie tells the story of 3 cops, and evolves around them, this sequel takes a view from above. There is no character development like in the first installment, however the story is more complicated and it takes more effort to explain it.
The First movie, concentrates on a BOPE squad, and the drug dealers it fights. Elite Squad 2 shows a bigger picture. It shows the politicians and Defense system mechanism that operates the squad, and the purposes it is used for. Instead of police corruption we see here murderers in uniform.
There are some flaws in the plot, and it slightly falls in comparison with the first one, however, overall it's very impressive.
I would recommend seeing The first installment before.
