I have seen "The Condemned" a few times since its release because although it has its obvious flaws, it has a lot of entertainment to it; on IMDb I rated the first film 7/10, which is pretty good in my books. I was looking at the related films section on IMDb and saw that there was a "The Condemned 2" movie and I had no idea! So I thought to myself, "awesome! This should be reasonable". I just got around to watching it last night, and well, my goodness, it was dreadful... Character development: What characters? These people are practically nameless. We know almost nothing about them. Acting: I have seen juniors on their first produced film act so much better. Most of the so called "characters" acting were so shallow and barely believable. It was painful to watch. Screenplay: *groans* I think whoever wrote this script jotted the whole rough copy down on paper in a maximum of 2 hours and stuck with it.. The predictability in this film too! Everything that happened, you could see coming a mile away. There seemed to be excessive explosions.. ALL THE TIME.. Excessive amounts of gun fights.. ALL THE TIME.. and not to mention, slooooooow moooootion.. ALL THE TIME!... If the screenplay of an action flick is done right, you should have a balance between pure action, drama and character development. You need a build up and intrigue toward characters, so that the suspense of the action grabs you, sits you down and makes you watch with anticipation. This film failed as an enjoyable action flick, in every possible way. Also, this film is barely a sequel to the first and it scars "The Condemned" name by claiming to be a part of it. The first film was mentioned once for a brief moment in the entirety of the film. I didn't have high hopes because of the rating, but Jesus. What were WWE Studios/Lionsgate thinking? This film is only rated 4.2/10 and it is STILL overrated; that is depressing. Absolutely horrendous and extremely disappointing. 1/20

You, not so much. Dang, that just got me about $1M dollars. In bitcoin. I should've bet earlier on the actors living earlier at the end of the movie. Eric Roberts is one of those guys that you can't trust, ever. Oh, wait, was that a spoiler? Don't believe it. Stupid movie. Bad acting. Enjoyable waste of time.

Many of the other reviews here have done a great job of summing up how monumentally awful this movie is. To say it fails on every single level is old news. Nothing at all like Condemned which was a great movie. Condemned 2 virtually typifies many of the least entertaining things a movie can deliver. It's so far beyond bad. No one in the movie does anything a normal person would do. Not one. Randy "The Viper" just walks about shuffling his feet mumbling his lines putting inflection on all the wrong words. It's almost surreal. Then it's frown, fake smile, frown for no reason. Many drinking games can be developed on various bad traits in this movie - How many times a clear shot misses, how many times characters get 30 rounds out of a 10 round clip, how many times bets are made by the nameless gamblers yet NOTHING has happened to preface the bets - There is literally nothing to be betting on! Another great one would be to do a shot of beer (not the hard stuff - you'll be too wasted) each time Randy unnaturally pauses before progressing through a scene or delivering a line. These are not normal pauses, folks. This is Randy (who doesn't seem too bright and may have CTE from all that wrestling) trying his earnest to remember what his cut-rate acting coach tried to teach him in his week of classes. . . . "Now Randy. Remember how you learned on Monday that you have to stare at the phone for 3 seconds after a call has ended, right? OK, so today we're going to go over 'Unnatural Pausing for Dramatic Effect'? Now these pauses will happen completely unannounced and have no relation to reality -- BUT it will show your dramatic range and truly make the scene!"

Really bad , storyline , Acting and acting all awful

The Condemned with Steve Austin was different, unique and had a flare to it. Sure the acting wasn't superb but it was decent. The Condemned 2 was horrible from start to finish. This film was poorly adapted, screenplay had a feel of being written by a high school teen, plot was weak and characters were dreadful. Randy Orton is horrid as an actor and the fight sequences were so distasteful they landed like a middle school fight. I give this poorly done film a 3 out of 10.
