    The first one was crap, I have no doubt this will be the same if even worse.

    Smoking Aces II: Cry Harder

    Seriously, considering the original film was supposed to be about twelve hitmen trying to take each other out (ergo hijinx ensue!) but we instead got a load of people crying, how did a sequel ever get approved? Who's going to watch this crap?

    Well I liked the first one. It wasn't well written, it wasn't well acted, but I still had a laugh with it. Plus Ben Affleck gets killed in it. That's got to earn it brownie points.

    It was awful but failed to deliver on the promised amounts of action. Plus it was never going to live up to the mistreatment of Ben Affleck that Mallrats established by having him made into someone's prison bitch at the end...

    That narrows it down to one of a million films.

    Its a film with a load of hitmen trying to kill 1 guy in a hotel but
    they're not all really hitmen, only the stupid ones, and in fact he is wanted alive for a heart transplant and that the big old mafia boss was actually an FBI undercover agent from over 40 years ago
    I remember my response to the reveal was

    f*ck?



    f*ck!


    ahhh f*ck



    f*ck this.

    Actually, it's going to be a prequel, which sounds even dumber than a sequel.

    But I disagree on it's deliverance, I think it delivered brilliantly on the action and the plot wasn't too bad for an American attempt at a Guy Ritchie film.
