Wonderful character development!

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

Nick Malloy (Randy Orton) is an EMT who hates chick flicks. He receives a phone call and is forced into a 12 round game or else his wife (Cindy Busby) will die. Nick has to follows directions and quickly find and decipher clues. We even get to see the man (Brian Markinson) making the phone calls to him. The question of "why Nick" is answered midway through the film, at which point Nick tries to go after his caller, while the cops go after him.We have seen similar films as this one, which I thought were superior. Other than Nick being an EMT, this one brings nothing new and exciting. The film is mildly entertaining at best. It might make for an inexpensive rental, but lacks the quality for a second viewing.Parental Guide: F-bomb, sex, nudity (Chelsey Reist)

I saw this sequel to the original 12 Rounds film starring John Cena and I thought that this film was in between very good and excellent. The film had some excellent acting by Randy Orton as Nick Malloy, Tom Stevens as Tommy Weaver, Brian Markinson as Heller, Venus Terzo as McKenzie and Cindy Busby as Sarah Malloy. The acting in this film by Randy Orton was excellent and I think that he should do some more acting for thrillers with action and violence, because he looks good for the role of a U.S Police Officer etc. 12 Rounds 2: Reloaded was awesome and was filled with some very tense action and suspense. There were explosions, chases and lots of hard gripping action. I thought this film was awesome but its not as good as the original 12 Rounds, but it definitely is a wicked film. I would give this a rating of 9 to 9.5 out of 10.

This movie was really more than what I expected, a lot more. I watched previous WWE production movies and to me this one is the best. Yes, even better than John Cena starred 'Legendary'.12 Rounds:Reloaded was a really great thriller, action movie. Randy Orton is great as the hero, has the charisma and can really make u sink in his acting. The direction was very well done. The action scenes are also very well co-ordinated & the suspense of the story manages to keep you on the edge of you're seat. You'll always keep wondering "Why did this happen? What's going to happen next?"The best part of the movie is that it always has some fresh revelation or twists turning up every few minutes, to help keep you engaged in the films story. Arguably the films is better than the first. It has more action, better acting & direction. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED because of its actions and, more importantly, suspense.12 Rounds:Reloaded is definitely worth the watch!

I didn't much care for the first "12 Rounds" movie, finding it flat and not very exciting. So when I sat down to watch this next entry, I was expecting it to be even worse than the original movie. But I have to admit that I was surprised. Yes, this sequel does have some problems, not just with the awkward title imposed on the front of the Blu-ray box ("12 Rounds 2"????) The main problem with this movie is that a lot of key linking footage, as well as entire scenes, seem to be missing here and there. Also, the ending is kind of abrupt. Still, there's a lot to enjoy here. The production values are generally pretty good for a movie that bypassed theaters. Randy Orton, though not a great actor, does seem to be trying, and he makes his character sympathetic enough. The main selling point of the movie is its relentlessness - once the crisis starts, there's barely a lull in the action and intensity. I'm not saying that this movie is a GREAT movie, but you'll likely find it better than you might be expecting, and it passes its 94 minutes with a certain briskness.
