Following a tragic hero, whom we only see for the first few minutes of Death Race 1, I'm sure no one wants to see an entire movie based off of that. The guy died at the beginning of the movie, which apparently means he's not important enough.

Death Race 2 is a highly unnecessary prequel to this series. Though it does provide a bit of backstory to the origin of the game, the rest of the movie, fails in the remaining departments. This movie blandly depicts nothing but more gore than the original movie, and that's about it.

The rest of the movie is a needless backstory to a character that's quite bland, the plot even lacking more, and just giving the audience slight eye-candy of average visuals. If you liked Death Race 1, you'll find this movie fairly insulting to the original.

Death Race 2 can be easily passed and you'll be glad you did.
