Overview

• Reviews from outlets including the Chicago Reader, Hindustan Times and Koimoi commend Bob Odenkirk’s committed lead turn and the vigorous fight choreography but fault a thin, repetitive script.
• Directed by Timo Tjahjanto, the sequel leans into a sunnier, self-aware tone with brightly staged set pieces and needle drops, contrasting the first film’s darker aesthetic.
• The cast reunites Connie Nielsen, Christopher Lloyd and RZA, with Sharon Stone joining as the principal antagonist alongside John Ortiz and Colin Hanks.
• Koimoi, citing Box Office Mojo, reports a $12.2 million domestic tally and $5.0 million overseas for a $17.2 million worldwide cume, after a domestic debut at No. 3 behind Weapons and Freakier Friday.
• The R‑rated film runs 89 minutes and rolled out widely in the United States on August 15, followed by an August 22 theatrical release in India.
