Instead, I chose Escape Plan II (2018). The first one of these may have been a little far-fetched, but it was still pretty good. This one was just ridiculous
Since I have so little to choose from in terms of dvds & Blurays, I decided, on your recommendation, to watch the above.
I rather enjoyed it.
The bad news, should you care to know, is that the first one is Poseidon, the 2nd one is Hades, and the 3rd one will be Zeus.
What struck me the most was the 1:30 at the start where they listed the various companies involved, and the bit at the end where they listed the producers, executive producers, co-executive producers, line producers, it was almost endless.
This is, usually, A Very Bad Sign.
But, as far as I'm concerned, it was ok.

"Escape Plan 2 was truly the most horribly produced film I have ever had the misfortune to be in."
I noticed those figures, though only after I'd watched it
I'll still watch the third one, probably
Tonight's first feature was Unforgiven (1992), a Western in which Clint Eastwood and Morgan Freeman play a couple of retired outlaws doing the One Last Job thing. Pretty good, I thought
And after that: Snowpiercer (2013), which is a very weird dystopian thing in which the world has been frozen to death by a misguided attempt to reverse global warming, and we join the company as the remnants of humanity have been circling the globe for seventeen years on a super train that takes one year to follow the rough outlines of the continents, and on which a strict caste system is leading to a violent revolution. All very strange, but despite the whole WTF nature of the premise, I thought it worked quite well
