"12 Rounds 2" is kind of an awkward title for a movie - no wonder they added "Reloaded" on the end of that. Doubtless after someone said the title out loud...
The premise here is the same as the first in this WWE Studios production in which John Cena is replaced by Randy Orton as the main character, Nick, an EMT who is forced to play a twelve-round game by a bad guy out for revenge, or - stop me if you've heard this before - his wife is going to get it.
The plot of this movie, like the original, is wholly, completely and outrageously implausible but you can look past that - or, at least, I could - thanks to the action sequences, which are plentiful.
Randy Orton does a pretty good job as John Cena. Tough gig following on from perhaps the most accomplished WWE actor, but he has enough charisma and acting chops to carry proceedings along nicely.
