Death Race 2(2010)

Genre: Action/Adventure

Death Race 2 is a prequel to Death Race The film explores the origins of the first "Frankenstein" car driver from the 2008 Death Race movie. Luke played by Luke Goss is arrested for a bank robbery for his crime which is carried by his boss named Markus and also killing 2 policemen. He is sent to prison in Terminal Island. Terminal Island is under the control of Weyland Corporation who hosts Death Match between the inmates and is forced to fight until death or submission. The host of the death match is September Jones who is sexually attractive and tries to get pay per view death match resulting in high TV ratings. September asks Luke to have a death match which he rejects. Things go different way when a death match is changed to Death race where any convict who wins all the 5 races without getting eliminated, will be set free. Markus has kept a bounty of 1Mil$ as prize money who kills Luke. As the story is pretty much expected and the rise of Frankenstein is known, the character of Frankenstein is known just to keep his identity safe from Markus. Nice acting by Luke Goss and has given an equally better performance as Jason Statham. Death Race 2 has not so much amount of Car accident scenes as DEATH RACE, but its more about the storyline and the rise of Frankenstein. People, who have watched DEATH RACE, try this. It’s a onetime watch. And people who have not seen, watch this one first and then followed by the 2008 movie.

Rating: 2/5- FAIR
