I sat down to watch the 2020 thriller "True to the Game 2" here in 2022, as I had stumbled upon the movie by random chance. And with it being a movie that I hadn't already seen before, I opted to watch what writer Preston A. Whitmore II had to offer.
Granted, I haven't seen the first movie in this franchise, so I don't know how true this 2020 "True to the Game 2" was to the original movie. Nor do I know how much of part 2 is a continuation of part one, aside from the flashbacks throughout the course of the movie.
The storyline told in "True to the Game 2" was adequate. I mean, it was watchable, sure, but it wasn't exactly a riveting movie experience. And as for this being a thriller, well that might be stretching the term a bit, as there wasn't exactly much of anything exciting or thrilling taking place on the screen as the movie trotted on.
The acting performances in the movie were actually fair, and that helped carry the movie quite a long way, as the storyline itself wasn't all that impressive. It was nice to see Vivica A. Fox in the movie, and she was actually the only one in the movie that I was familiar with.
While I managed to sit through the entire movie, then director Jamal Hill didn't exactly churn out a movie that will have me returning to watch it a second time.
My rating of "True to the Game 2" lands on a less than average four out of ten stars.
