1/10
Bad sequel to Norris best movie
19 August 2013
Michael Dudikoff and Steve James , the "American ninja" duo was at one point attached to the film, before it was given to Norris. Chuck wasn't happy with the screenplay , but needed the money so he made this movie. He still dislikes the final product. Lee Marvin was going to reprise his role in this sequel to 1986 "Delta force" , but sadly he passed away in 1987. It's also sad that five crew members were killed in a helicopter accident during filming. Chuck and his brother Aaron gave blood at the hospital to try and save them.

What a grim beginning of this review... The movie won't bring a smile to your face either. The main villain does really despicable things in this one , that strangely "Delta force 2" at times belongs more to the modern times of dark , gritty action movies.

Billy Drago ("The Untouchables") is fun as always as the bad guy. This must be his third movie with Chuck. Everybody else is not worth mentioning.

Lots of heavy handed conservative social commentary and evil Latin American stereotypes. A little bit of propaganda. Also not very impressive action. Bad direction from Aaron Norris with lots of slow motion (not used effectively either). I have to admit that the stunts (skydiving) are pretty cool.

Brainless sequel for Chuck's best movie. To be honest it doesn't really have anything in common with the first movie (with the exception of Chuck). Maybe you will enjoy it on the "so bad , it's good" level. I would rather watch "License to kill" or "Lethal weapon 2". I give it 1/10.
