The prequel to Joe Carnahan’s kinetic hitman flick SMOKIN’ ACES arrives on DVD this January 19th, and looks to have more of the same stylish and excessive violence, courtesy of Vinnie Jones and some different members of the Tremor clan.
The synopsis for SMOKIN’ ACES 2: ASSASSIN’S BALL: Walter Weed (Tom Berenger) is an unassuming desk jockey at the FBI when the Bureau uncovers a plot to assassinate him. A team of degenerate, psychotic assassins dispatched by mystery man Hal Leuco to win a huge bounty includes a resourceful beauty who has a unique method of killing her prey (Martha Higareda), a power-tool wielding psychopath (Jones) and a deadly master of disguise (Tommy Flanagan). Also in the hunt is the fan-favorite Tremor family from the original film, featuring nymphomaniacal gun-nut (Autumn Reeser) and her lethal kinfolk (Maury Sterling, Michael Parks and C. Ernst Harth). Baker (Clayne Crawford), the agent in charge of the operation, puts himself and his team in the line of fire to defend Weed, but it’s not until the smoke clears on the film’s explosive climax that the surprising identity of the plot’s mastermind is revealed.
The movie is directed by P.J. Pesce (LOST BOYS: THE TRIBE), and you can check out the trailer below courtesy of Crave.
