“Hard Target 2” (** out of four) was an unnecessary sequel to the 1993 Jean Claude Van Damme-John Woo action thriller about an MMA fighter (Scott Adkins) reeling from a recent death in the ring who is recruited by a millionaire businessman (Robert Knepper) and his wealthy cronies but soon finds he’s the prey in a “Most Dangerous Game” hunting match in which hunters kill people. Features enough fights and beautiful scenery to make it watchable for action junkies but starts to run out of steam in its second half. Actually, this bears more resemblance to “Surviving The Game” than the original “Hard Target”. Adkins’ one-note expressions and stiff line readings show he doesn’t quite have the acting canvas and poetic expressionalism of Van Damme
