Liam Neeson’s action sequel is now trending in UK despite being branded “a stinker” by viewers

by

Vengeance” is currently generating interest and buzz in the UK.

In 2025, I found myself once again stepping into the boots of Mike McCann, the indomitable truck driver, as I embarked on a journey to the towering peaks of Nepal. This time, it wasn’t about traversing treacherous ice roads, but a deeply personal mission: to honor my late brother by scattering his ashes atop the mighty Mount Everest. The continuation of the gripping story from 2021’s “The Ice Road” promises an emotional and thrilling adventure.

Along the journey towards Mount Everest, truck driver Mike McCann confronts merciless mercenaries in a bid to safeguard a group of tourists traveling by bus and prevent a nearby village from impending doom.

The critically panned action thriller has become the most viewed movie on Amazon Prime Video in the UK and Ireland since its addition to the platform on Wednesday, according to FlixPatrol.

On IMDb, a viewer described the movie as “unimpressive,” stating it featured flat, one-dimensional antagonists, typical side characters, and dramatically unrefined direction. These elements combined made the plot seem incredibly contrived or fake.

In addition, the subpar computer-generated imagery effects and monotonous action scenes do little to enhance the illusion, making it a disappointing film overall. A flop.

A spectator expressed: “Overall, Ice Road Part 2 is amusing, yet it’s quite preposterous, boasting a poorly written script, subpar acting, and at moments, it’s so poor it becomes comical.

One assessment deemed it as “absurdly unbelievable,” while another expressed it as “incredibly poor, with a nonsensical storyline, artificial scenarios, some of the poorest acting I’ve ever witnessed, and dialogue that could only be penned by inexperienced writers.

While many found the film less favorable, boasting an approval rating of just 18% on Rotten Tomatoes, it did manage to captivate some viewers. One enthusiast even went as far as recommending it, stating: “I wholeheartedly suggest this movie for anyone seeking a top-notch Liam Neeson performance.
