This is the story of a one-man killing machine who leaves no one behind no matter what the circumstances are. The movie has a different mood with much more action than the first one. Director changed and screenwriting done by Stallone himself and James Cameron. The latter really surprised me. I recognized his peculiar signature in several places, i.e., in the plot twists and cruel killings. In my opinion, this movie is at least as good as the first one.
