Wow.. .looks pretty cool.. I really enjoyed the first movie and this one looks like it takes the story in a completely new direction.

Well, hopefully it's better than the first -  total waste of money that first one. One of the worst movies...

So, maybe the title, Retaliation, refers to the fans getting even with the filmmakers? :)

I don't know why you keep bashing the first one.. I enjoyed it. I thought it was a fun action/SFX popcorn kind of movie.

First one was a boring action movie.  They revealed most of it through commercials and there just wasn't anything to wow me.

Hopefully this one will be better, but I'm not seeing it in theaters.

Because I thought it was crap. I could ask the opposite question: I don't know why you defend it. I thought it was crap :)

I agree. I pretty much got out of it what I expected, and had fun. Didn't expect Oscar-winning performances, it's called Rise of Cobra for crying out loud!  :P

Who cares what it was called? Just because they name a movie something silly, are we to expect to pay money for crap? I think the movie was plain and simple crap. And if this thread was intended to only promote the movie and no negative opinions allowed, then perhaps that should have been stated in the initial post?

Wow.. okay.. you think it's crap.. gotcha!!

Well, you did ask him why he was bashing it. It's ok for people to not like something. There have been plenty of movies and TV shows recommended here I have loathed. No big deal, we all have our thing. :)

I have a day off finally and having finally turned back on my Netflix I watched the first one on streaming today. Frankly I have to agree with Al. All I can say is I will not be going to see the second in theaters. It's not worth it to me. Maybe streaming or netflix rental eventually, but I kinda could careless.
