Can anyone give me a reason why only one American dies in this movie, and when he does, it is supposed to be a very emotional scene, yet when the Operation Delta Force team kills hundreds of Russians, in slow-motion action scenes, or thousands of Arabs, also in slow-motion action scenes, you are supposed to cheer and say "Take that, you non-American monsters!". I know I used "slow-motion action scenes" a lot, but that is because every action scene in this movie is in, you guessed it, slow-motion. Every last one of them... And this squad should be called "Invincible Slow-Motion Bullet-Dodging Force", since they seem to have supernatural powers that help them to dodge bullets. And if this supernatural power fails, they have some kind of regeneration superpower, which is all they need to kill the complete non-American army that stands between them and victory. By this point, nobody cares since they have been put to sleep by another laughable slow-motion action scene... That is if they are not laughing out loud at the bad acting, cheesy dialogues and incredibly poor story. Which is what I did... The cast is made of unknown actors, which will probably remain unknown since they don't even play characters. They are just playing guys with guns(and, lets not forget, superpowers)... The only quality is that the special effects are surprisingly not that bad(although they are in slow-motion) for a TV movie... But it still sucks... and at the same time is so bad it's good... OK, maybe at the end it gets a little too repetitive...

If there is one thing in movies that i am sick of, it is that american lives are so much more worthy then russians and others. This movie proves that all to well. The Delta Force Team look invinsible, they kill hundreds of iracis to save TWO americans and only TWO of the team members are hit and both survive just fine. But the acting is actually good and the plot is also very good.

A no-name cast, so-so plot, lots of action, and you've got a reasonable rainy afternoon movie. It was a miserable day, and all I wanted was a simple, typical action flick that wasn't preachy didn't worry about being politically correct (well, not too worried), and didn't require absolute attention to keep up with the plot. I didn't expect the greatest show on earth, and was entertained for 108 minutes. That's what I wanted, that's what I got.

What can you say after watching this movie? That is, if you had the interest and concentration to see it to the end. I was left speechless, due to the amazingly dull story, annoying situations where one American equals that of a fifty or more Iraqis, and boring dialogue. I think that if this movie has something to teach, it probably goes like "Don't screw with US, or we'll come and kick your butts". Plus, this film truly encourages and votes for killing masses of foreigners, in the name of war. I got the image of tackling chess pieces out of the playing board. Except, now it's fast and there's not so much thinking. And on top of that.. no character there has any spirit; then, how can you care at all what happens to any of them. Excluding war movie fans with no taste, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. There should always be something more interesting to do.

... well, not that good either. But compared to a lot of shoddily written tripe that gets top billing just because of bigger budgets, I'd say this was quite above average. Some rather impressive action scenes, albeit overshadowed by some really awful dialogue... but then again, intra-personal relationships and conversation isn't why you wanted to watch this film in the first place, is it? And a good thing too... Having said that, if you want snappy dialogue and razor sharp delivery, you're occasionally in for, if not a treat, then some truly appetizing morsels. There are many intellectual film villains, but few so deliciously literate and exquisitely brainy (and truly eeevil) as Flint Lukash (J. Kenneth Campbell; brilliant and dazzling as ever!). I'd go so far as to say this bad guy puts several other baddies to shame. (James Bond could have done with more adversaries like this... Now there's a thought!) A pity the good guys aren't quite up to scratch. Still, they tried...

A good evening's entertainment; decent plot outline, lots of big explosions, nice stunt work, and no problems identifying who's on which side during the fight scenes (a common 007-flaw, I might add). Relax, have a good laugh, cheer for the heroes and boo at the baddies and just enjoy the cruise... And get Mr Wein (director) a bigger budget and better dialogue next time! Could be fun...

...IF you can get over the dire acting that's on display, for seemingly no apparent reason the producers have brought in another bunch of actors to play the delta force who are even worse than the original - The action on the ship seems pointless and the bad guys are pretty lousy - they couldn't shoot on target if they tried - they make the good old U.S.A seem better than they were. OK, that's the bad points, The film has a pretty good story concerning a group of nasty Russians (as usual) taking a cruise liner - for reasons if i told you might spoil the movie - so the Delta Squad go into action.

Not bad..The action is virtually non-stop so if You - Like me love loads of gunfights and explosions then you will be reasonably satisfied

I prefer the Original to this, due to a more tense story and it had better acting.

To date Followed by a further 3 SEQUELS!

My Rating 6/10

Being a fan of movies made by Nu Image was the main reason why I rented this movie. I wanted to start with part one, but I could not locate it anywhere, so I started with part two. (All the movies in the series seem to have different characters, so I knew I wouldn't be missing anything.)

Although this was clearly a low budget movie, I was impressed on how they managed to stretch the budget. We get things like tanks plowing through buildings, collapsing guard towers, submarine interiors, and sea ports. The photography is usually sharp, and the lighting is bright enough.

While this movie may look good, most of the remaining part of the movie is unfortunately not very well done. This is a sluggish movie - the story is dragged out to an overbearing length (the movie is almost two hours long!), and the action scenes lack zip, either due to excessive slow motion or flat direction. There are some technical goofs like the shadow of the boom mike being visible or some real inept editing. And none of the characters really manage to stand out, even the bad guys. Even if you watch this movie for free during a slow day, chances are good you'll be weary long before it ends.

As a lover of everything who has something to do with action, guns, explosions and all of that stuff, this movie was a perfect way to spend my time. This movie has it all. It starts right off in the opening scene, where our friends and heroes from the Delta Force completely outmanouvers the enemy. Not just that, but the scene is very good when it comes to action, special effects, action, explosions, action, tensity, and action. There's nothing better than the US army showing the scum of the world how things are done. The movie continues in the same style all the way through, and it also has a lot of variety. For example, we get some interesting things happening on board a sub, in addition to an attack on a Russian naval base. This movie kicks a** 110 %!

The Operation Delta Force series had no reason to justify its five (proudly) American products or either the shoot the five of them in only two years...so, in this case, I can say the job was made fast, but in a bad way...This one isn't an exception...the same recipe over and over again...the invincible squad of American soldiers killing thousands of terrorists from other nationalities such as the usual Russia...Is that a "Made in America political speech"? What could be a plot summary for this movie if it's not "American muscled heroes kicking the terrorists' butts"? I saw Operation Delta Force 3: Clear Target, and it was the SAME thing, the only advantage in the third one was that it lasted shorter...A huge advantage in this case! The acting...if you call it so...is plain bad...I've never seen the actors of ODF2 before, and I hope I won't see them again! The characters are single-minded...definitely...and it is at some point funny...you can't say anything about any character...I don't even remember the principal character's name...no informations given about any characters except maybe the size of his gun...so in this film, the most important characters are the guns...The special effects are not bad, but they're not reinventing cinema...Another funny point is that SO many people get shot in this film, and there is almost no blood...And THE point that made the film last so long was the stupid and pathetic slow-motion with the backing patriotic American music during all the action scenes (that means more than three quarters of the movie)...Plain bad...If you like guns, soldiers and EXTREME cliches that you could see in a Simpson's episode put in a serious way, or if you really dislike Russians, you'll like this one...But, if you're someone who has healthy movie tastes...avoid it...I give it 28%.

Initially somewhat of an unknown quantity to me, Yossi Wein ultimately proves himself to be a more than capable action director, flexing some seriously steely celluloid muscle in his excitingly bullet-blasted, gallopingly Gung ho, Kill'em all 90s Alpha-fest 'Operation Delta Force 2'. And this pleasingly noisome sequel to the curiously neglected, no less bellicose 'Operation Delta Force' has an equally exhilarating, palpably sweaty, rewardingly OTT Canon Films vibe. The darkly charismatic J. Kenneth Campbell energetically puts in a truly dynamite performance as the amusingly glib, deliciously dastardly, ominously Poe-quoting, Nuclear sub stealing terrorist skeezer 'Lukash'. I'm genuinely perplexed that this boisterously camo-shredding, ordinance overloaded shoot 'em up doesn't get mentioned more often, since it really is a rather fine six-pack friendly, six-shooter and beer B-Movie classic! Not that my opinion will sway anyone remotely sensible, but I honestly dug part 2 a Teflon'd tad more than the 1st fiesty instalment of this fearlessly flag-waving America-uber-alles franchise. While the text is rarely better than perfunctory, the uniformly robust performances and consistently zesty action sequences are bona fide!
