1 April 2020
Slang-bang, moving sequel with plenty of action and amusement . It is a grindhouse pleasure that will appeal to saga lovers due to a lot of action, thrills, chills and emotion. It is set in a nearly future, there in South Africa develops the ultimate sporting where contestants get score point for running drivers down, a futurist international sport with plenty of violence in which pilots contend for hitting other vehicles. Meanwhile a powerful organizer : Dougray Scott buys the broadcasting copyright of the violent competition to Ving Rhames, as the car race is televised by pay per view and presented by a beautiful host called Satana. As Frankenstein/Luke Goss is given a new opportunity to have his reward. As he is attempting to survive the dangerous and bloody competition by pitting other nasty drivers to get his purports.

This is a nail-biting sequel with lots of noisy action, violence, fights and breathtaking car crashes. It is a high-octane fantasy thriller and another routine follow-up, repeating similar premise than previous sequels. As we have the skillful driver Luke Goss accompanied by a gorgeous co-pilot, Tanit Phoenix Copley, participating at the stirring and amazing race, contending with other heinous and ominous participants. It is made in brainless and rudimentary masculine fashion, filled with macho men and sexy, bomb-shell girls. Stars the tough and two-fisted Luke Goss, he is assisted by a passable support cast as Dougray Scott, Danny Trejo, Tanit Phoenix, Frederick Koehler, Robin Shue, among others.

The film written, produced by usual Paul W. Anderson, was professionally made by Raoul Reine, though with no originality, being a simple rip-off similar to former entries. Here Reine doesn't reach nowhere the satirical impact and playfulness of the original film.

He also directed a grean number of Tv episodes in the popular series as Black sails, Knightfall, Redball legend, Inhumans.
