• 2:00 — An opening action sequence is rather nice, but it doesn’t establish anyone properly and doesn’t give any meaning to consequences if we don’t know or care about anyone.
• 3:45 — The hostages should get down. The cops should stop shooting like that. Do the cops know there are hostages?
• 4:15 — That truck should have been blown to pieces.
• 4:30 — Well now the cops know there are hostages and have a reason to not shoot.
• 6:30 — Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant is closed due to the Chernobyl disaster. There is no particular civilization nearby.
• 11:45 — Langley Air Force Base

• 14:30 — Torture

  • Waterboarding
• 18:30 — Two years ago is really pushing it, since the previous movie was ten years previous.
• 21:15 — Why are they all men? Oh, right; reasons.
• 21:30 — See also The Borg.
• 24:45 — For superweapons, they sure have boring guns.
• 32:30 — That’s an honor-battle. The one should have shot the other and established the ineffectiveness of his gun.
• 35:00 — They were just hanging out.
• 35:15 — Well now that the dude is out from the reactor they could just blow him up and roll credits.
• 37:15 — I thought the one bot was still mostly-okay. Also, the final camera should have still been functional.
• 1:02:30 — That’s a lot of exertion for a killing-machine.
• 1:10:45 — The fuck? This is incredibly an stupid action scene.
• 1:11:30 — That’s a lot of exertion for a killing-machine.
• 1:12:45 — Why start using a knife if he could use the guns and ammo from all the people he had been killing moments earlier?

• 1:13:45 — There sure are a lot of people to kill.

  • There sure are a lot of men to kill.
  • There sure aren’t any women who even get hurt.
• 1:21:00 — Why would there be running water? Maybe rainwater? I shouldn’t have to wonder.
• 1:25:00 — Why have the little violin “boing” at that moment of ambush?
• 1:27:00 — Why leave him there? He ought to know better..
• 1:30:00 — Wouldn’t all of them blow up? Were they all timed differently?

• 1:33:00 — It’s rather presumptive of this movie to assume a sequel.
