Somewhere in the middle of all the Liam Neeson actioners, 2021’s “The Ice Road” was released, offering the usual in the star’s growly screen presence, but placing him behind the wheel for an unusual thriller about navigating wintry, unstable driving conditions across Canada. The feature found a somewhat captive audience during pandemic days, giving Neeson something of a hit during his “say yes to anything” phase. Four years later, and now there’s “Ice Road: Vengeance,” an unexpected follow-up that takes the main character from the slippery terrain of North America to the perilous mountain ranges of Nepal. It’s a big change of scenery for writer/director Jonathan Hensleigh, and, well, there are no ice roads involved in the story. However, there’s roughly the same mix of passable excitement and B-movie silliness to provide an entertaining sit, and while Neeson may be on autopilot at this point, he remains an enjoyably gruff action figure.
