Death Race 2
Fire and sex a good movie does not make

Starring: Luke Goss, Lauren Cohan, Sean Bean, Ving Rhames, Tanit Phoenix, Robin Shou, Danny Trejo
Rating: R (Brutal Violence, Pervasive Language and Some Sexual Content)
Death Race 2 is an action-packed, sex-filled thrill ride that will make you want to puke your guts out after watching this disgrace to cinema. Director Roel Reiné fills the movie with slow motion explosions and fight scenes that drag out this craptacular scumfest. It could be an attempt to make Carl Lucas (Luke Gross) seem “badass,” but this is a failed attempt. In a nutshell, Carl Lucas is sentenced to a fictional prison where apparently prisoners fight to the death in a show known as Death Match to fund a news network. That’s right, a news network. When ratings go down it is up to September Jones (Lauren Cohan), the whorish host of Death Match, to create a more profitable and entertaining show that still involves violent prisoners killing each other; thus, Death Race is born. Lucas’ “badass” skills are often poorly displayed in this movie through a collection of lame special effects, bad acting, and poor cinematography. It is almost laughable at times how lame tough guy Lucas is.
In spite of everything previously stated, Death Race 2 does offer something that I did not think was possible. It rivals Michael Bay’s Transformers series in how much action it brings to the table. If there were an award for directing the most action-packed movie, Roel Reiné would take Michael Bay any day of the week; however, we must remember that lots of action does not make a good movie. In fact, it usually makes an incredibly bad movie.
I believe this movie was made to be a guy’s dream movie; however, it turned out to be a complete nightmare for everyone. I pity those who have watched this movie. If you like sex-filled action movies, go find another movie other than this one because I refuse to recommend it to anyone.
