Reaction: Great numbers for this sequel, way better than the already strong numbers of the first film. We are really happy with the direction Mo Buck has pointed the series after taking over the writing duties.

"This revitalizing sequel rings a much needed villainous punch to the proceedings that the first film in the series sorely lacked." - Paul Landon, Film School Rejects

"While the first film had fun action, writer Mo Buck has added in far more character work that really benefits the series' future." - Sean Sullivan, Financial Times

"There is certainly an audience for these shoot 'em up video game adaptations, but I can't seem to figure out why. There is little to no character development and any plotting takes a backseat to special effects, generic looking aliens and explosions." - Pearce Chayka, Daily Telegraph
