Review of The Substitute 2: School's Out

i liked this movie better than the 1st one.Treat Williams takes over the substitute role from Tom Berenger.that is one reason i liked the movie.i like Treat Williams,but i'm not a big Tom Berenger fan.the general plot line is pretty much the same,with some of the details changed.Williams plays a mercenary,whose brother(a teacher for "troubled" students ends up killed while attempting to stop a carjacking.Carl Thomasson,(Williams)shows up at his funeral and decides to find out who killed his brother Randall,even though they hadn't seen each other in years.long story short,he becomes the substitute for Randall's class.he uses his skills to teach the students valuable lessons,all the while looking for answers.there are some great fighting scenes in this movie.some are not that realistic,but they are entertaining.the dialogue in this movie is kept to what is needed and no more.the action is front and centre.for,me,that's exactly what i'm looking for in this kind of movie.i felt the 1st one focused too much on dialogue.that is remedied in part 2.it's pretty mindless,but very entertaining.hamlet it's not.but for sheer entertainment.it works. i give "The Substitute 2" 8/10
