The second one.....
13 December 2022
Warning: Spoilers
In custody in New York, Detective James Knight finds himself in the middle of a jailbreak led by The Christmas Bomber, a brutal fanatic whose Santa Claus disciples are terrorizing the city.

With the promised return of his badge in exchange for taking out the terrorists, the steely-eyed Knight doles out mercy for the just...and merciless justice for all the rest.....

The second film in a trilogy surrounding detective Knight, once again played by Willis. Once again, due to his illness, I will not comment on his performance. Peace Bruno..

From Halloween to Christmas, this film has a thing about seasonal masks, and I for one cannot wait to see what they do with the final film. Thanks heavens that Lochlyn Munro decided to get out of bed for this one, as he's as hilarious as you'd expect him to be, wheeling around in his mobility aid asking questions and shooting his gun for the hell of it. This one has something to do with that ex sports pro from the first one and his family being kidnapped for some reason or another.

The film doesn't amount to much, it has a Christmas fell to it, there is a weird subplot involving a prison guard who is religious, and it all ends with a decent shootout where a bad guy survives being shot multiple times so he has something to do with the third film.

It's mercifully short, and just gets straight to the point, but it's still missing something. Let's hope the third film is the greatest film ever made.
