Woke Score
Lower is better
Review
The movie is a straight action thriller sequel where autistic accountant Christian Wolff and his brother Brax smash a human trafficking ring tied to cartels and a Salvadoran family. The story runs on brotherhood, vigilante justice, brutal fights, and autism as a literal superpower with zero lectures on identity politics, systemic oppression, or modern social justice. No girlboss rewriting, no race swaps, no activist sermons. Casting reprises the first film exactly with no forced changes or signaling.
