Terminal Island, New York: 2020. Overcrowding in the US penal system has reached a breaking point. Prisons have been turned over to a monolithic Weyland Corporation, which sees jails full of thugs as an opportunity for televised sport. Adrenalized inmates, a global audience hungry for violence and a spectacular, enclosed arena come together to form the 'Death Race', the biggest, most brutal event.

A massive departure from the original, _Death Race_ keeps the cars and kills and forgoes virtually everything else from _2000_. Fun in a very different manner, but still fun, and that's what counts.

_Final rating:★★★ - I personally recommend you give it a go._

Loud and brash but ultimately entertaining thanks mostly to Jason Statham and some decent racing sequences (well, when the camera wasn't jittery or quick edits). Also some love for Joan Allen making for a fine villain and never a bad thing with Ian McShane even in a supporting role. Nothing great but pretty much well within Paul W.S. Anderson's wheelhouse. **3.5/5**

To win the three-year agreement with Nalan Yanran, the chief disciple of the Cloud Sect, Xiao Yan and Medicine Elder journeyed to the Snake Clan Desert to seek the legendary Heavenly Flame-the Green Lotus Core Flame, in order to enhance their strength. In the Snake Clan Desert, they became unexpectedly involved in the racial conflict between the human race and the snake people. The Snake Clan Queen, Medusa, was in seclusion to advance to the Dou Zong realm, providing Xiao Yan with an opportunity. Xiao Yan, together with Qing Ling and Mu Li, infiltrated the Snake Clan's underground palace. Coincidentally, Medusa fell into demonic possession due to absorbing the Heavenly Flame, allowing Xiao Yan to effortlessly obtain the coveted "Green Lotus Core Flame." Meanwhile, outside the city, a monumental racial war between the human race and the snake people was unfolding. With Xiao Yan's greatly enhanced strength, he thwarted the long-planned conspiracy of the snake people.
