Undisputed 2: Last Man Standing (2006)

Michael Jai White
Scott Adkins
Eli Danker
Ben Cross
Ken Lerner

Directed by Isaac Florentine


Plot: In this continuing story of convict and world heavyweight champion George Chambers, the "Iceman" is sent to a Russian jail on trumped-up drug charges.

Review: I never understand why they make sequels to movies that don’t do very well. I do not know how much money the first Undisputed made, but I don’t remember it being a big hit. I also don’t remember the movie being that good. Needless to say they did make a sequel, but at least they cast someone I like, Spawn himself. I saw the trailer for it and was surprised to see that it looked kind of cool.

This movie has that feel of the 80’s and 90’s straight to video martial arts films that I used to love. The story is just an average low plot action film. You go into this film watching it for the action and nothing else. I am personally a big fan of Michael Jai White and don’t think he does enough and he was no disappointment here. He really carried the movie well. The fight scenes to this film were really good. The choreography was well done and well filmed. I want to give props to co-star Scott Adkins for his martial arts abilities. He is has a great screen presence and is amazing to watch. Overall the movie is nothing special, but if you enjoyed old school martial arts films from the 80’s and 90’s you will probably dig this movie.
