This film had so much potential

Whilst he wasn't a terrible actor, too much about the son

Needed more fights with the other gladiators

fights to the death in the middle of vegas where everyone knew what was going on anywhere and not a cop in sight, a bit too far fetched

more Dae Han !

The heck? Best of the Best II is the ideal good sequel, and true classic among the rest of early 90's martial arts flicks.

Its almost as good as the first, only in different ways. Loved it. Eric Roberts said he made this to give the fans of the first movie, something more.

God bless that man!

Sad that they didn't follow it up with a proper sequel, to round out what could have been a great trilogy. BOTB2 & BOTB3? They are "sequels" in name only. Enough said about that.

Actually I think its more awesome than the first one. The first one had some nice moments, but overall it was much too corny for me (not that I'm against corny).

This one had higher stakes, much better fights, and an overall more serious tone.

Very good. But brick not hit back!

Would have been cool as hell to see Bracus fight (and beat) other people besides Tommy Lee and his friend. Kind of how Bloodsport had the build up of Chong Li destroying several opponents before facing Frank Dux.
