I usually love a good mindless action film, but with this one, it simply didn't do it for me, but to viewers looking for intense carnage with cars, they should check it out. Although far from the worst film, I've seen, Death Race is still a mediocre disappointment that could have been much better than what it turned out to be. The action was there, but the plot was a little thin for my liking and for me, this one disappointed me because I really wanted to enjoy this film however in the end, despite all the action, it was a little flat. For me, the original will always be better, and though it had some impressive carnage on-screen, there was just too many elements lacking from the film's plot to really make a memorable ride from start to finish. Death Race leaves a lot to be desired in terms of a mindless action film.

If the movie had a slightly better script, this film would have been better. I simply felt that it cheapened the enjoyment of the film. For me anyways, this was a mediocre film that just relied more on the action than anything, while the original, was a fun movie with a pretty good plot and fun action, this one just has a sloppy written script and acts more on visuals than anything. Having seen the original, I enjoyed Roger Corman's original production much better than this one, and I felt that this one simply didn't have that special something to really make it stand out.

Hell-bent on payback, the crew cuts a swath of destruction through opposing forces, wreaking havoc and shutting down an unexpected threat in the nick of time - five tons of weapons-grade plutonium, far more than enough to change the balance of power in the world. But when things go wrong and one of their own is viciously killed, the Expendables are compelled to seek revenge in hostile territory where the odds are stacked against them. The task looks like an easy paycheck for Barney and his band of old-school mercenaries. Church (Bruce Willis) enlists the Expendables to take on a seemingly simple job. Barney Ross (Sylvester Stallone), Lee Christmas (Jason Statham), Yin Yang (Jet Li), Gunner Jensen (Dolph Lundgren), Toll Road (Randy Couture) and Hale Caesar (Terry Crews) - with newest members Billy the Kid (Liam Hemsworth) and Maggie (Yu Nan) aboard - are reunited when Mr. Death Race: Beyond Anarchy does deliver its share of down-and-dirty exploitation thrills, although all but hard-core genre fans will find the film's sadistic violence and leering nudity hard to.
