Top 10 Worst Action Movie Sequels


when this video ends let’s all try our
best to forget these abominations ever
happened welcome to watchmojo.com and
today we’re counting down our picks for
the top 10 worst action movie sequels
back off where there will be troll for
this list we’re looking at films that
are bonafide
action movies and straight franchise
sequels however they don’t necessarily
have to be the second movie in the
series also no superhero movies yep
we’re looking at you Superman for where
is the woman give it up you’ll never
find number 10 Pirates of the Caribbean
on Stranger Tides you are Jack Sparrow
there should be a captain in this for
films in and not even Captain Jack
Sparrow could save this one no in fact
Jack was one of the only beloved
characters left from the original film
with a chance to rescue this disaster
it’s to you now Sparrow was that really
necessary
other favorites like Keira Knightley and
Orlando Bloom had the foresight to
abandon ship
this film departed from the three before
it acting as a standalone sequel and
will just come out and say it things get
weird in this movie this is nonsense I’m
going
there are magic swords voodoo dolls
zombie armies mermaids and magic
chalices yet none of the magic that made
audiences fall in love with pirates in
the first place there is a reason this
franchise has taken a long extended
break since this movie’s release just as
this whole number nine
xxx state-of-the-union the fate of the
free world in the hands of a bunch of
hustlers and thieves as was the case for
many movies on this list the film that
spawned the sequel was a blast xxx was a
thrill ride few expected so after its
success of course a sequel was lined up
standard order of business however we
all should have expected state of the
union’s disastrous fate well in advance
when original actor Vin Diesel you may
have heard of him dropped out of the
film to make you’re not gonna believe
this the pacifier forget those boys I’m
here to protect you
not cookies understand xxx
also lost its original director Rob
Cohen substitutes Ice Cube and Lee Tama
Horry were both criticized the movie
relied too heavily on bad CGI
and audiences were unimpressed with the
story overall it just missed the mark oh
geez number 8
The Matrix Revolutions begins tonight
where to even begin with a film that
broke so many hearts the original matrix
blew audiences away it was incredible
no doubt about it audiences were
thrilled to get a second in reloaded and
while there were some warning signs
there was plenty of great action point
being we had hope for the finale
sadly audiences were disappointed to see
that this last installment was far too
anticlimactic
yeah then there was something about
chosen ones and clones and we just get
to the action please power of the one
extends beyond this world it reaches
from here all the way back to where it
came from where the source unfortunately
that too failed to impress simply watch
Locke’s infamous blaze of glory seen to
understand revolutions in a nutshell
number seven Highlander – the quickening
greetings Highlander you called okay
this one will be tough to handle bear
with us here
the first Highlander was fun a creative
small budget movie about an immortal
Scotsman in New York it was a good time
a cult classic awesome should have been
left alone enter the quickening our
immortal hero is no longer immortal Andi
has to deal with some assassins
okay we’re sticking with you for now
maybe this could be cool and his mission
is to save the world from the ozone
layer maybe one day the ozone layer will
repair – okay so it’s more like an
artificial version of the Earth’s
stratosphere called the shield but
regardless any tampering with the shield
of any kind dangers the lives of every
man woman and child on the planet
criticized for numerous plot holes and
continuity errors the quickening fails
to be an enjoyable experience on every
level come on man you’re fighting the
ozone layer you can accomplish something
number six Terminator Salvation what is
it it’s real flesh and blood for those
of you still curious yes the Terminator
franchise is still alive and releasing
movies how we don’t know surely Genesis
killed it once and for all I’ve been
waiting for you
but then again salvation came first and
it was somehow an even worse installment
in this once beloved franchise collect
me if you want to live avoiding time
travel you think salvation wouldn’t
suffer from the logistical problems the
other films are criticized for but that
is not the case what should I tell your
men when they find out you’re gone
I’ll be back Salvation makes little
sense as its skynet controlled
protagonist relies on luck and
coincidence to fulfill his mission and
yet in the end we’re supposed to believe
it was all part of a master plan the
action also failed to excite but hey
that’s not a big part of action movies
anyway right this is John Connor you are
the resistance number 5 taken 3 my first
priority is my daughter ok taken 2
wasn’t very good either but at least it
had a plot that related to its title
what are you gonna do what I do best no
one was even taken in this movie as far
as audiences could tell the plot of this
story was send Liam Neeson out to be
badass on the phone good luck fight some
foreign bad guys and make our studio
money it’s also clear the writers don’t
read YouTube comments because any
observer of taken fans would be well
aware that the last thing you’d want is
more of that damn daughter why are you
doing this stop getting into trouble and
stop crying you know your dad is gonna
save you alright pick a high number for
Transformers Revenge of the Fallen
Michael Bay takes a lot of heat from
critics movie goers internet trolls well
pretty much everybody so let’s start
this off by offering some respect and
admitting that the first Transformers
movie was actually pretty good it was
awesome seeing our favorite Autobots and
Decepticons on screen you must push the
cube into my chest I will sacrifice
myself to destroy the second installment
however didn’t hold up
audiences were predictably critical of
all the usual Michael Bay tropes like
explosions and one-dimensional
characters but critics caught on to much
bigger problems it is kind of Batman
brain freeze why would you the story
didn’t make any sense and the movie
tried to save itself with bigger stunts
slow motion Megan Fox runnin scenes and
or explosions general consensus the
movie went full michaelbay enough said
if you hate me I understand number three
Robocop three please officer no
loitering three films in Robocop came
across as played out and stretching
itself too far for success problem
number one Robocop
wasn’t Robocop original franchise actor
Peter Weller was replaced by Robert John
Burke something fans were not
particularly pleased about you may want
to call the fire department
problem number two like so many others
on this list the movie simply had a
terrible plot we get that action movies
by Nature acquire leniency but there’s a
limit to audience generosity
what issues problem sucka I mean officer
that coupled with the fact that it toned
down its graphic violence to suit family
audiences meant that original Robocop
fans were none too pleased with this one
calmly you are in violation of curfew
number two a good day to die hard it’s
not you I love these outfits is anyone
surprised a die-hard film made this list
yeah we didn’t think so it’s the general
consensus among film aficionados that
the die hard franchise like its lead
star Bruce Willis has given up at this
point
but for some reason they just keep
making these damn movies and people keep
flocking to theaters to see them shit we
do for our kids worst offender though is
a good day to die hard earning a 14%
approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes it’s
criticized for having little to no plot
that simply serves to set up action
scenes Willis and Jai Courtney also got
flack for their performances but come on
they didn’t have much to work with
before we unveil our number one pick
here are some honorable or in this case
this honorable mentions does have this
for you but no problem at all man just
uh just remember me when you wax hi this
is Gerard eighth floor Lorelai Building
roommate one floor I need an ambulance
Newman has been shot
number one speed to cruise control of
all the lists watch Mojo’s had to
compile choosing a number one pick has
never been so easy far above all the
others on this list critics and fans
agree cruise control is one of the worst
if not the worst action movie sequel
ever made
the original speed was an unexpected
adrenaline rush filled with great
performances from Keanu Reeves Sandra
Bullock and Dennis Hopper that speeding
bus awesome let’s all go seed speed –
it’s about a slow moving cruise ship
abandon ship for this where’s the action
where’s the speed
missing Reeves and hopper the film is
filled with terrible dialogue a poor
plot and yes clearly awful action we
gladly jump off the boat and drown there
would be less suffering involved I’ve
been in worse situations than this and
panicking does not help trust me do you
agree with our list we’re on the same
page what do you think is the worst
action movie sequel brings out Shaw LAPD
