to be honest I wish I had only watched the original.  2nd and 3rd sucked big time.  fxs were terrible and the plot was really bad.  watch it free on youtube.

The first was the only good one, saw the rest for the bewbs, and afterwards, it still didn't make up for how bad they were.

i thought all 3 were so ridiculously stupid they had some entertainment value...the blood and guts is great...the third one has some very nice scenery.  :D

1st one was fun but terrible (like a Burt Reynolds Movie).  The 2 sequels were aweful.

The novel was really good.
If I had a gun with 3 bullets and I was locked in a room with Bin Laden, Hitler, Saddam and Zipp...  I would shoot Zipp 3 times.
