The first film in this series was delightfully awful. This, the first sequel, is nearly as much fun, but is even worse. Honestly, who the hell thought that making this was a good idea? If you honestly think that the MiG-29 resembles the F-4 Phantom II, you need help. Big time. For God's sake, my mother knew that the airplanes weren't real MiGs, and she knows nothing about airplanes. Not to mention that the flying scenes are really, really lame and cheap-looking (when hit by a missile, airplanes only splinter apart if they are made of wood; modern fighter jets are not made of wood). Oh, and they use the same footage of a Kfir (my bad, "MiG-23") "blowing up" every time a plane gets hit (even if it's obviously not a Kfir/MiG-23/who gives a shit). The acting is even worse here, and the soundtrack pales in comparison to that of its predecessor (which was quite good, actually). At least the plot was slightly less outlandish than in the first film (which isn't saying much).
Rating: .5/4
