I thought this was not as good as the first movie. In the first movie, Wolff at least had the screen time to show off his uniqueness. Here, not much. He’s just a glorified mercenary with autism. Also, the plot felt too… convenient? And it introduced a few story lines that didn’t lead to anywhere or had unsatisfying ends, like Wolff finding a partner, or Medina somehow ended up satisfied about being helped by the gang? Girl, you didn’t want their help and wanted autonomy in the first place. What’s with the smile in your new chair after all that nothing you did? The only guy who got a satisfying end is Brax I guess. He got to spend quality time with his brother, and he got a cat.
Still, it was a fun movie. Fights were satisfying enough. Plotline was just weak.
