So clap your hands to the sound Of everyone first born dying now. | Rating: 5/5 Man, that film dragged its feet something fierce, and you know what, this film isn't that much better, though it is nevertheless better, probably because it focuses so much more on Mads Mikkelsen, who is awesome, by the ways.

Try again. Except me as your keeper, there's been a change of plans, be careful of what you speak of, I've come to understand.

Like I've been saying time and again, there is more focus to this film, and yet, there's still hardly any focus to this near-lifeless, tediously structured drama, which still would have been decent if Refn's direction didn't match the tedium of his script. If you want blood, you got it. Just confirm how you got your ticket.

The film's rather minimalist subject matter offers only so much meat to begin with, and that is really brought to your attention by this plot concept's exploring the same idea as its predecessor's story concept of intentionally meandering in an overly naturalist fashion that is too questionable to be effective, because even though this film is decidedly more focused and less do-little than its predecessor, it still pays too much attention to nothing outside of life being lived. I know we are not blood, and blood is thicker than water, but your body already has all the blood it needs.

An ugly urban story not meant for the genteel. There's virtually no limit to how far Mikkelsen's sorry, sad character will go when he's pushed, and the story ends on a very chilling note. The collaboration between Nicolas Winding Refn and cinematographer Morten Søborg continues with this sequel, and more money and experience behind the partnerships results in a sharper visual style, for although the photographic value of this film is only slightly better than that of its predecessor, definition is more relatively crisp, and color plays are relatively tasteful, thus creating some compliments to the immersive filming style that was found in the last film... to a certain extent.

Movie & TV guides. In closing, cinematography is a bit sharper, while Nicolas Winding Refn's direction retains its highlights, and performances retain their charisma, broken up by effectiveness, and that's enough to bring the final product to the brink of decency, but not enough to prevent a do-nothing story concept, made all the more tedious by a lack of originality and a wealth of meandering, unfocused material, backed by a punishingly dull atmosphere, from driving "Pusher II: With Blood on My Hands" into utter mediocrity. When you take a drug to treat high blood pressure or diabetes, you have an objective test to measure blood pressure and the amount of sugar in the blood. Mads Mikkelsen shines in this portrait of a criminal whose world is falling apart, and who sees only one way out of his tortured world: saving the life of an innocent.
