Review of Missing in Action 2: The Beginning (1985) by John A — 04 Mar 2016
This sequel/prequel, was actually filmed first and it's predecessor was shot back to back with this.
This follows Braddock (Norris) as he's captured during a rescue mission in Vietnam in 1972, before moving quickly on 10 years later, it's now 1982 & Braddock & his men are still M.I.A.
The plot dips significantly in quality, the direction is sloppy and the performances are terrible. The highlight sadly is the cruelty Braddock & his men are put through.
The film features decent performances from Norris & Soon-Tech Oh, but the rest are just horrible. The film is enjoyable though & although its predecessor is the better film this is my favourite of the series.
