Not as good as the first but the Chinese guy was fun to watch fighting. The
story just wasn't well put together as the 1st movie. I also didn't care
for all the super bright lighting through out the movie in such an enclosed
place. It was like a techno prison club or something. Hopefully if they
make a sequel, they will refer to the original for starters.

The scariest part is when you first see Stallone. Other than that it is a B
movie with a larger than average budget that they spent on actors. The plot
gets super squirrelly and things happen inexplicably just to move it along.
The funniest part is when they are talking about a solar power system and
they talk about "blowing" it. Ive never seen a solar system that was at
risk of blowing up. Then it blew up and there was some sort of steam
involved that blew manhole covers off which of course advanced the plot.
Lame stuff like that kept getting them out of impossible situations when
they could have just thought of another way out, but the story was poorly
written... Not even worth a rent.

Stallone and Bautista may headline the movie, but they're barely in it.
This is more a martial arts movie than it is a prison break movie. The
action scenes would've been decent but the movie budget went more into
special effects instead of the fight choreography. Action scenes are masked
with mass amounts of quick cuts, the majority of the movie is shot with a
shakey cam and the story has an unnecessary amount of complexity.
