This one has an even longer one.
Truth be told, I'd forgotten that - at the end of the previous movie - Chris Hemsworth's Tyler Rake had fallen into the Ganges after been stabbed and shot a lot.
This picks up from that, with Rake pulled out of the water in the very first scene and spending the entirety of the first act in recovery.
It's really from Act 2 in that the action kicks off (with, seemingly, his injuries all but forgotten) as he agrees to extract a family from a prison - cue near enough 1.5 hours of virtually non stop action.
Worth a watch? Yes.
Will it win any awards? Doubt it.

The key story elements are the same as a young woman released after a long period in Prison for killing a cop tries to track down her younger sister. She struggles as her past catches up and the victims family are keen for revenge.
It holds up pretty well to the original, the writer also help produced this. Just the ending seemed a little less dramatic in this version. Still a very good story and a gritty role for Sandra Bullock.
