I was able to force myself to watch the whole thing.
Awful....beyond terrible...

This movie was plotless, with incredibly bad acting. I think the culmination was seeing the Delta Force insignia sewn upside down on one of the uniforms.

If you are really a die hard fan, you might like it....but don't expect realism.

Not another one
Yes, unfortunatly, another Delta Force film. Just like the rest, they all die 'saving' America. In one word, terrible. ... Read more

Hundreds of lucrative ships have disappeared without a trace due to pirate activity. The President of the United States has decided to mobilize the U.S. Navy Seals against the modern-day pirates of the seas. These Navy Seals are the most elite and highly trained force in the world. Lieutenant Michael Harris and his team of Seals are assigned the mission and arrive at an abandoned oil rig in the North Sea. There they encounter the gun-toting bandits and a booby-trapped rig.

The Navy Seals take it personally and embark on a series of missions that climax with the takeover of the pirates' port in Kazahkstan. ... Read more

EIGHT LEGGED FREAK
OCTOPUS 2 is a sequel that isn't a sequel; it has nothing to do with the original, and nothing is ever really said that indicates how this puppy got so big...but, as a run of the mill creature feature, it has its moments. I liked the rapport between partners Walter and Nick (Frederic Lane and Michael Reilly Burke), but found Walter's exit too quick; he had a nice panache the movie never returned. The effects are average; nothing startling, although the decapitation of the Statue of Liberty in a dream sequence was quite cool. The extended rescue of the kids on the bus (after the octopus' demise) was too long and anticlimactic. Not a horrible movie, but it won't make us forget JAWS!

What were they thinking?
I have to say, this is by far, one of the worst sea creature movies I have seen. I didn't even bother to rent it, I watched it on Scifi. It looked exciting, but I was wrong. The Octopus itself hardly moved at all. Its tentacles were the ones that did the moving. Even if the theory of the movie was right, the octopus being swept from the sea, that would've been wrong if it killed people because Octopuses aregentle creatures and do not grow to enormous sizes. Even the first Octopus made more sense and was a lot more exciting. The only reason why I give it two stars is for the acting. Otherwise this below sea level bugdet film is a stinker.

octopus 2
An octopus attacks New York city killing everyone. It must be stopped! Pretty average movie. Good to rent

Sometimes bad is just bad
I see a lot of movies of this type. I can't stop myself. Giant spiders? Bring 'em on! Huge crocodiles? Count me in! I saw the original OCTOPUS so I was, of course, obligated to the sequel. I didn't think so much of the first one, but what little did I know? The first one was a masterpiece compared to this film. The enormous octopus is basically a stalker in some strange places. You'll wonder aloud, "How did it get there?"
Also, the supposed New york location is indeed laughable. I didn't notice if this is another Canadian production, but it is obviously not New York. Okay, they throw in the obligatory stock footage, including one shot of the World Trade Center.
The biggest fault has to be that it runs long. You think it's dead (The explosion seems of the thermonuclear variety) but wait! Then there is the exciting sequence of people you don't care about escaping the collapsed Lincoln tunnel, I think I almost suffocated.
Oh well, when is Octopus 3 coming out?

Pretty silly....
I watched this movie because I felt obligated as a fan of the 1950's killer octopus movies. This movie should only be watched on a system that has a working fast-forward button. It has a few good moments, like where the octopus attacks the Statue of Liberty, but not much else. What actually sold me on watching it was the fact that monster is supposed to attack NYC. Be warned-no one in this film was ever near NY. The whole thing looks like it was filmed at a theme park using customers as actors. No violence, gore, or nudity. There may have been swearing but I was fast-forwarding past the human scenes. The monster looks about as good {or bad} as the monster of the week on Baywatch. ... Read more

Worth While Seeing
Bryan Genesse from TV's Street Justice Stars in Grade B Actioner about a group of deranged criminals take over a train whith a renagade CIA Operative on Board. Usual action no big surprises but the viewer gets to see some great action sequences on and off the Train. The Only problem i have with the film is the ending was too incoherent It seemed like the director wanted the movie to end in a lame way. The film's strong point is Bentley Mitchum the villian of the film took great relish in portraying a psycho mouthy killer with a meanstreak who gets what he derserves. Not a bad film i have seen much worse in the past. At least this film can hold my attention.

New talent discovered
One of my favorite things to do is troll through B movies looking for first-time actors, would-be stars, and the kind of performances that confirm that "there is no such thing as small parts, just small actors." One performance stood out in Death Train, barely discernable amid the explosions, killings, profanity and bloodshed. Jordan Rollins, playing young Javier, jumped off the screen with his understated, sincere, and very likable portrayal of a crippled boy caught in the crossfire. I couldn't find Rollins in any other films, so I am assuming he is a first timer. I can only hope it is not his last. Also worthy of mention are the priest and the little sister - but for my money Jordan Rollins is my "Rookie of the Year" for 2003 for his turn as Javier, the brave boy from south of the border in Death Train.

Brian Genesse is a fantastic B-movie action star
This film is a great b-movie action flick; far superior than Van Damme's "Derailed" from a year earlier. The main character in this movie is also one of the stars from my favorite movie ever, Operation Delta Force 3. But in this movie, Brian Genesse is alone as he tackles the ruthless terrorists one at a time, in the tradition of Steven Seagal and Bruce Willis. It was also nice to see Genesse's natural fighting abilities when he was battling the bad guy boss at the end of the film. Without any obvious stuntman, Genesse handles himself quite well.
The final scene of the movie is awesome as his Mexican Federale friend hands him the Tequila bottle for the second time and poor Brian is still out of breath after his first swig. A wide eyed Brian mutters "My turn?", as he grabs the bottle from his friend, not quite ready to take another gulp of the potent liquor.
Nice action movie. After seeing it, I am going to buy it.

All Aboard!
This movie is definitely not on the year's A-list, but as low-budget flicks go, it's a winner! The story is basically a modern-day western about bank robbers who commandeer a train somewhere in Mexico so they can escape with their cache of diamonds, and have some fun terrorizing and killing innocent passengers along the way. It's a little violent in spots, but if you're okay with that, enjoy!

By the way, Bentley Mitchum as the ringleader of this bunch of goons is my pick for Best Actor when they hand out the Oscars. All things considered, I think he'll be overlooked, but he's the baddest bad guy I've seen in a long time! I was actually rooting for him over the boring "hero" who did nothing but skulk around in a black leather coat, hiding and climbing back and forth between railway cars.

If you want to go along for an entertaining ride, I'd recommend boarding "Death Train". :)

Proof that some people should NEVER make a movie.
I won't even bother to discuss the plot because it would be degrading to me as a human being. I'll make this quick. Some of the outrageous characteristics of this "movie" (located in Las Vegas) include the following: so-called "special effects" that were created by a computer and a blue screen, out of place stock footage provided by ABC News, a car which is driving in a straight line and goes by the Bourbon Street Casino FIVE times(!), a horribly cheesy set that we are supposed to believe is an actual casino, voice dubbing that is so out of sync that I might as well have been watching a kung fu movie...and on and on and on.

The silver lining to this cloud is that I did laugh about five or six times while watching "Cult Of Fury". It almost could work as a comedy...but not quite. AVOID!! ... Read more
