Really fantastic sequel to the original I never saw. Turns out this one is self-contained enough that it doesn’t matter much.
Boyka (Scott Adkins (Universal
Soldier: Day of Reckoning)) is the mixed martial arts champ at this one
Russian prison but the problem is he’s a little too good at beating the shit
out of other inmates. There’s no worthy
competition and the mob is getting upset because they’re actually starting to
lose money. You see Boyka is such a sure
thing that no one bets against him. In
order to spice things up the mob frames ex American boxing champ George
“Iceman” Chambers (Michael Jai White (Black
Dynamite)) so they can get him into prison and fight Boyka.
Great setup and well executed. Clear fight sequences and lots of ‘em. Wonderful acting and directing. Wise old man in a wheelchair that helps
Chambers get through his ordeal and a dude gets flung into a sewer filled with
shit. There’s a lot of good stuff here.
