If the original was Heat for the Monster Energy/Affliction-demographic, the sequel does the same for Le Cercle Rouge. While it lacks certain sleaziness that made the original a classic, the sequel provides enough guys-being-dudes charm between Gerard Butler and O'Shea Jackson to make up for it. Worth the price of admission for the scene where Big Nick rolling face after smoking(?) E at the club yells "Fuck NATO" in a moment of commiseration with a Serbian guy.
