Here, he [Schwarzenegger] proves that the old magic still endures when using a length of rubber tubing to choke out a henchman, before declaring, “you’re hosed”. For those raised on ridiculous action movies, such lines have the ring of pure poetry and Arnie remains the undisputed champion of banging bad guys’ heads together with a wink.

The season does feel strained at times under the weight of so many characters, and the series should occasionally take greater advantage of its potential for scale and action. FUBAR has proven itself a series worth tuning in for with Season 2, but it's still one in deep need of streamlining.

FUBAR continues to be a stupid good time, and we love it when Arnold doesn’t take himself seriously in a role. But with the addition of Moss as Greta, we wonder if the second season story will be more about generic spycraft and less about Luke’s family strife.

The action isn’t as exciting as it could be, the pacing drags whenever the focus shifts to the love triangle between Schwarzenegger, Fabiana Udenio, and second-season guest star Carrie-Anne Moss, and the thematically explosive mishaps aren’t as impactful this time around.

Fubar somehow comes off as slightly dull. .... That’s largely down to the total lack of jeopardy: you can guess from the outset that each of the good guys survives and a happy ending for everyone is all but guaranteed.

Instead of evolving, creator Nick Santora’s series doubles down on action movie cliches and strained punch lines. The result is a new season that plays like a B-movie but thinks it belongs in a big-budget franchise.
