This was a cool flick to watch, it has nice action, good fights scenes, all that was missing was a car chase, not as good as the first one, but it was still entertaining, it was better the Wesley Snipes last movie the contractor. I really don't agree with the other comments, it really wasn't that bad some people over exaggerate on the time the feel that they wasted watching a movie at the same time if it was so bad why you sit through all of it?, the story was kinda all over the place but it did hold enough of your interest to carry on somewhat, the first Art of War was probably a better story than this, if this movie had a little more better production value this would have been near on screen quality.

The first one was pretty good except for the bloody scenes which i pretty much disliked. This one is clearly a low budget product from the director of the contractor, a film which was even superior to this one. It has fights in the dark where you get the impression that snipes'double did most if not all of the fighting. The DVD even has alternative fight scenes which really don't look that much different from those actually in the film. In about every snipes action film straight to DVD, i can find something to like and this one isn't different but you need patience and i really was getting to lose mine at 45 minutes. Something interesting happens at about 49 minutes (unfortunately it starts getting in the flat and boring zone once in a while after that) and you can tell until the end that the script isn't the main problem but the directing is. it's mostly flat and boring but a better director with a bigger budget could have made something good out of it. I also really hated the ending.You see ... there's a traitor(not such a big surprise when you see so many movies) at the end and that person is being killed in cold blood by snipes. The whole thing is so flat and dull that it simply doesn't feel true and leaves the viewer unsatisfied. This art of war sequel is indeed a betrayal of the first one since it hardly has any real connection to it (bringing marie makito could have helped) and is so far below in quality. Apparently nobody was aiming high with this and it shows.

Lets say you were bored on a Friday night at home and you decided to rent a movie..Lets say the movie store was renting movies for 20 cents each..Lets say you had watched Blade and thought Wesley Snipes was a great actor...After all that, I'd advice you not to rent or watch this movie. Wesley's dialogue is horrible. He needs a new acting coach and his fight scenes aren't that great either. Heck I've seen better fight scenes being done by Chris Tucker and he ain't some black belt martial artist. The whole plot of this movie is based around an ex-"super-agent" that has been forced out of retirement to fight some bad guys. Simple enough plot line that gets overworked with mindless plot twists that frankly, don't seem to make sense in the end. Plus whoever was in charge of dressing Wesley, pretty much ridiculed every fight scene by dressing him up in a jacket, blazer or coat. But hey, if you're a fan of terrible acting, sub-par plot lines and just want to waste your life, then be my guest and watch this movie.

I tried to watch this movie and only made it through 15mins, About 3 chapters. The music was really bad, and annoying! From the amount that I saw, The movie was poorly produced. The acting made me want to cry, I am surprised others could not see this before it made it out of the cutting room,It should have been left on the floor. It was so atrocious and A complete let down, And I was Shocked to see acting from Wesley Snipes in this manner. I figured he could do so much better, than this piece of (blank). I feel that this is a sign of a career ending of A great actor or a great hit to come. So ending this blog I hope everyone is able to hear through the grape-vine, Not to watch this movie, and don't waste your money.

After reading bad review here and ignoring it I would like to apologize to whoever took the time to write that review. I actually went to the trouble of creating an account with IMDb just to tell you all how BAD this movie really is. Like I can't believe how bad it is. I am about the least picky person I know when it comes to movies but please be warned that this truly sucked. Snipes acting was mediocre at worst. I do believe the writing was done by an up and comer in the grade 9 remedial drama class. The story...while providing a decent twist, was possibly put together by some lonely Hollywood assistant who pieced together various scripts she found in the recycling bins on sets. The weak cinematography was on par with the rest of the film. I can only think they paid Snipes all the budget and then director called in some old favours?? I don't know where to stop. Please don't watch this movie unless you have absolutely no choice. And even then you might want to do some laundry or something so when' it's over you won't feel like you lost part of your life. Oh ya....the fight scenes. Apparently they have invented a new way to shake the camera around without moving it??? Strange stuff.

There are bad movies and then there are bad movies. Who blackmailed snipes to be in this sht show? Possibly the worst direction I've ever seen the cheese doesn't get thicker. I give this a one not because 1 is the lowest rating, but because I luv snipes. Fk this trash! I hope the production company died painful deaths

I don't know why people are giving this movie such a bad time. It's exactly what you expect of this kind of movie. It's an average movie worth watching if you don't pay to much for it and have some time to kill. The acting is average, the plot is OK, almost a test case for this movie genre with very bad people wanting to kill the main character. Their some plot hole and some situation turnaround. Nothing too dramatic, just what you expect. It's look exactly like a Wesley Snipes movie and his fan will (have ?) probably enjoyed seeing him fight once again. I've seen far worst movie than this one.

Perhaps you like or perhaps you hate the first Art Of War. However, considering limitations of this genre, what Christian Duguay presented from his creative side is truly fantastic. Superb dosage of action. Action mostly intelligent at that. Cinematic side of the first one is exceptional and truly atmospheric, while sound treatment was of the same caliber. Well collaborated efforts with fine results. It is very clear to anyone who has seen the first part; that story and the movie itself, never really anticipated further conclusion; nor it required any sequel for that matter. This could be any "of the shelf" action movie with Wesley and with title that would less embarrass both Wesley and the rest of the collaborating crew. I wont even path into this story. Just awful ! Technical and visual side of this movie is incredibly ambivalent. From time to time I had a feeling of watching a TV movie or high packed TV commercial. A few nice shoots, but what remains is almost vaccinated from cinematic experience. Wesley, I like you, always did. But please, learn the art of choosing the Sun Tzus among writers, directors and casting! And please, don't be cheap on production like this!

Someone reviewed with 'Wesley Snipes Means No Budget These Days...', which might even be the case , but the Art of War II really means business. What Hollywood blockbuster of recent years made - or even tried to make - a mockery of the Homeland Security Department ? Not many except for this one. Although the timing, as is the case with Sun Tzu's art of war, of getting the Homeland Security rats cornered inside an abandoned ship can never be predicted accurate to the micro second, Snipes does a remarkable job of taking them out. The expose of the Homeland Security rats inside 'The Art of War II: Betrayal' apparently was painful enough to force the producers to back out to Canada and subsequently into an immediate for Video release only, instead of movies theaters. So yes, the 1 star only reviews are a interesting read when it concerns Sun Tzu's Art of War part II : Betrayal, where the movie ending would even surprise the Master himself. Even though the cliché about Senators taking bribes from an upstart Arms Research company may, at first sight, not seem that shocking, Snipes delivers as expected inside an interesting movie, which was forced across the Homeland Security border in order to get it released. One should really wonder what or who forced this to happen. Conclusion : The DVD box of this one is a collectors item.

Wesley Snipes is backing action in this action / thriller genre movie. An agent goes to attend his martial arts tutor's funeral after he is informed of his death. But afterwards, he meets his daughter, who informs him that her father was murdered because of him and his job. The agent, however, begins to dig into this when a friend of his, who is a politician and is aiming to become a senator, starts helping him only to realise that all is not what it seems. Starring Wesley Snipes, Lochlyn Munro, Athena Karkanis, Winston Reckert, Scott Heindi and Michael Ryan, the movie is directed by Josef Rushnak and is written by Jason Bourque and Keith Shaw. This is an action packed movie all the way through from the beginning, which makes one think what has happened, till the end. There are moments, regarding flashback which makes one remember certain scenes fro the 1970's TV series, "Kung Fu, which helps the story to move on. The only minus points for this movie is that it is predictable but on the other hand, it does have some good action sequences. Conclusion: A good action thriller, which is worth watching at least once.
