Martial arts legend Jean-Claude Van Damme is set to return to screens as Netflix premieres “Kill ‘Em All 2” in the United States on December 25, 2024.
The action thriller, a sequel to Kill ‘Em All, is part of Netflix’s 18-month first-window deal with Sony Pictures.
The film picks up seven years after the events of the original, focusing on retired CIA operative Phillip (Van Damme) and his daughter Vanessa (played by Jacqueline Fernandez) as they face off against a relentless enemy seeking revenge.
Set against the backdrop of a picturesque Italian village, Kill ‘Em All 2 delves into themes of vengeance and redemption, delivering intense, fast-paced action. Early reviews are mixed.
The Action Elite awarded it three out of five stars, calling it “a superior sequel” with engaging action and a brisk 85-minute runtime.
Meanwhile, its IMDb rating of 4.0/10 reflects criticism of its plot and modest budget, though viewers have praised the film’s nostalgic vibe and stunning locations.
