Plot summary
Leng Feng (acted by Jing Wu),a former soldier being discharged from the Chinese Army for his fierce action - having killed a real estate company boss in town, was wandering for his life in Africa, serving as a mercenary providing security to passengers abroad. No matter how badly off Feng was, someone was still in his mind: Long Xiaoyun, Feng's fiancee, who had been kidnapped and lost contact with him for three years. Feng was wearing a bullet as a clue to represent her. One night in a pub, Feng and his local friends were attacked by some rebel forces who aimed to overthrow the African government. The Rebels and mercenaries troops arrived. Bullets, fire and bombs were hitting the place with blood everywhere. The Chinese nationals were in great danger. The Chinese fleet arrived to evacuate the Chinese nationals, but later Feng learned that some Chinese workers were still stuck in a factory whereas a doctor, who knew the deadly virus Lamanla, was stuck in a hospital. Feng headed to save the doctor but he was shot almost dead. With his last few dying breaths, Dr Chen told Feng to take care of Pasha, his African daughter. Feng strove to save the Chinese workers but he caught the deadly virus accidentally. Soon when Feng, Pasha and an American doctor Rachel Smith (acted by Celina Jade) arrived at the factory, they encountered a hard battle with Big Daddy (acted by Frank Grillo),head of European mercenaries, starting their blood shedding slaughter plan. The war never ended until the moment when the Chinese Army learned the casualties in Africa, so they fired missiles and sent out tanks to help. Feng finally killed Big Daddy in the hard battle to end the civil war. Feng succeeded and he sent all the crew members back to China. He was allowed by his commander of the Chinese Army to return to his military squadron.

Complete and utter garbage
I had heard that this movie had rave reviews. It's one of the saddest and most brutal portrayals of Africans and Africa I've ever seen.
What a mess; between the poor writing and the poor acting, it seemed like the longest 2 hours of my life. There appears to be no plot; other than people are continuously getting killed in vivid technicolor. The good guy's kill the bad guys; then, the bad guys kill the good guys; and then, the bad guys kill the bad guys.
The propaganda angle in this movie is pretty blatant; with statements like "they're at the Chinese funded hospital" instead of "they're at the hospital". The original script for this movie must have been "enhanced" by CCP hardliners within the Chinese government before they decided to shoot the movie.
As for the abundant 10/10's I'm seeing on this site ... I'll assume that they're employees of the production company, CCP hardliners or friends of the actors.

Breakneck action, just the way I love it
WOLF WARRIOR 2 is an unashamed action flick for those who like non-stop visual excitement and mayhem. While I enjoyed the mid-budget predecessor, this film is a whole new ball game, big enough to be China's biggest cinematic hit of the year, and refreshingly old-school; you feel like you're watching a 1980s blow-'em-up movie like RAMBO 3 at times. The setting is a made-up African country, where former special ops soldier Wu Jing is now disgraced and working privately. When a rebel army take over the country, he agrees to lead a one-man rescue mission to save friends and the Chinese trapped within.
This is one of the best films I've watched from the Chinese mainland. The propaganda is still there, and there's even some flag-waving at times, but the emphasis is on huge action set-pieces which mix together non-stop explosions and brutal fight scenes to fantastic effect. Wu Jing excels both as the leading man and director, coming up with action which is still fresh and exciting in a similar way to THE RAID 2. There's a sense of drive and momentum that sees this through from beginning to end. The film is heavily reliant on CGI for effect and it's pretty cheesy at times, but perfectly acceptable.
My favourite sequence is the breakneck fifteen minutes between Wu Jing driving his jeep through the hospital wall (!) up until the bit where he crashes it into the plague pit. Watch out for hand to hand combat, lots of melodrama, and situations which spiral out of control from the word go. The amount of collateral damage is insane, and that tank battle takes things to new levels. Frank Grillo isn't quite up to the calibre of Scott Adkins but still good as the comic book villain, and watch out for the hilarious Russian strongman. WOLF WARRIOR 2 is a good example of everything I want from a movie, and to criticise it would just be redundant.
