Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

Explores the origins of the first "Frankenstein" car driver, Carl "Luke" Lucas, who died in a race at the beginning of the first film. Death Race 2 replaces Jason Statham with Luke Goss best known for his work in Blade II and Hellboy 2 and he is quite fun to watch he is no Statham but he is doing his part quite good. The movie has some pretty good explosions, fight sequences and a lot of great car chases which surprises me a lot when it's a film straight to DVD and it actually looks pretty good. Although it's kinda slow until it reaches the 'Death Race' part it's still quite interesting and you really get into the story as a whole. You have Machete, a girl that looks like Megan Fox and Martha Wayne what else could you possibly want at this point? And it's definitely better than the ridiculous 1975 and 2017 films but not as good as the 2008 remake.

This movie is one hell of a ride from the beginning when we meet our main character to the end where he becomes Frankenstein, to the gorgeous navigator to the Savagery of the Death Match to the birth of this new type of combat from Goldstein and Lists (who I thought for longer than I should of thought his name was lisps) this movie sets up everything you want if you want more of the murder and deadly Death Race while setting up the legend that is Frankenstein which in the 3 movie is compounded on the legend, and the cruel but honest and fair business man of Weyland. And all of it compounding on Luke his family tiring to kill him the other drivers trying to kill him and the crazy host trying to make a quick buck off of him.

Death race 2 is that of a prequel to the original whilst using 2 old characters to create continuity and a picture to use more continuity. Above all though the film wasn't that good their are several shots that seem out of place due to the reused first film shots and although it's meant to show us the origins of the death race it leaves us more questions than we had like why is the track different why do the cars look like the updated versions from the 6 moth gap from the first film. One of the best things in the film was when Marcus Kane was watching Death race 2000 on TV but even that is just leaving a plot hole. The acting is good the car scenes are brilliant and the deaths of the racers aren't reused and it shows unitive mostly with sheiks death. Overall the film is okay but has the a bigger budget it would have been a master piece.

First of all, I cant believe people rated this at an average of 5.7. I think it has more to do with the fluff than the quality of the movie.Death race was OK, but this one just made me cry. It starts with some linguistic errors in the opening line (combing words as 'In the near future' and 'now'). Normally I can get over that, but it really set the table for the rest of the film. Scenes that don't have any real importance to the story are filmed in slow motion, while others, that have more significance for the film are too brief. The actors were not really to blame. there are some decent actors (not great), but the director and the writers should really think about a different line of work. To sum up: it has potential, but this one is a swing and a miss.I don't want to get personal, but shame on the highest rated review here and shame on the people who found it useful...
