Delta Force 2: The Colombian Connection (1990)


The idiot-savants at Cannon Film erred on the side of idiot with this stinker sequel to The Delta Force (1986). This time, the Delta Force takes on a drug cartel in a fictional central American country, with Chuck Norris splitting from the pack to rescue hostages being held in a druglord's estate. The plot is taken directly from the "Drugs are Bad" pile of scripts, while the dialogue is free advertising for America's War on Drugs. The acting is bad, and the characters are poorly developed. The officer leading the Delta Force is just a trigger-happy goon, who is just DYING to destroy all the drugs. Yes, Delta Force 2 is another propaganda film. Except this time its pandering and annoying as hell. Not even the action scenes are very much fun. One thing is for sure, Delta Force 2 is more like a boring lecture than a rally-the-troops Budweiser-and-America-the-Beautiful type of film.

3/10
