“In the hood, you look fly.” “Fly?!” Samuel Goldwyn Films has revealed the amusing official US trailer for the movie titled As Good as Dead 2, an action thriller sequel to the other Michael Jai White movie called As Good as Dead from 2022. MJW wrote the scripts for both of these, but didn’t directed either, leaving that job up to someone else. They’re sending this out direct-to-VOD (in December uh what) and it’s obvious this is just more action junk. After his Mexico assassins fail to eliminate DEA Agent Bryant Powell (Jai White), Sonny Kilbane (Berenger) is put on the hit list by his deep state former partners. Bryant must now break his former enemy out of prison and get him to safety, so he can testify, with assassins hot on their tails both north and south of the border. As Good as Dead 2 features Michael Jai White, Tom Berenger, Ronnie Gene Blevins, and Guillermo Iván. This buddy comedy wannabe mess of a movie looks like it’s painfully ripping off Midnight Run but so much worse in every possible way.
