Re: The Collection
An exciting, stylish, violent, and for the most part superior sequel. The first film's domestic cat-and-mouse suspense is replaced here by a more ambitious and action oriented design. The entire enterprise, from the cast to the costume and production design, is larger and more detailed, and there is a sense the creative team is elated and excited they have the chance to return to this storyline and universe. It opens with a major spectacle (a nightclub murder spectacular reminiscent of Ghost Ship's memorable opening) and stays fast and furious until its clever ending, which indicates a third film without registering as too ambiguous and open. Josh Stewart remains an engaging presence as the protagonist, a sly thief and survivalist. Fans of the first film will be pleased, and I expect this will expand this new franchise's fan base as it opens around the world and then, of course, hits home video.

Re: The Collection
My football team was losing its conference championship game 63-17, and it was the only thing playing after 10:30.

Re: The Collection
THE COLLECTION
this was a passable film. It's nothing special. The bad guy kills for no reason but this film at least provides a satisfying conclusion twice.

Re: The Collection
This was a blast and better than the first. A very fun time! Emma Fitzpatrick is adorable. Loved the club massacre.
This series deserves more viewers. If they eventually make a third I'll be there.
8/10 (B+)
