4
5	This time around the Delta Force, which still counts [=McCoy=] (Creator/ChuckNorris) in its ranks, is deployed to a BananaRepublic in South America to take down Ramon Cota, the world's most powerful drug lord, after Cota commits hideous crimes against people close to [=McCoy=].

7	----
8	!!This film has the examples of:
9	* ActionizedSequel: The first film was rather slow-paced and somber, with many (actionless) subplots focusing mostly on the villains and the random hostages. ''Colombian Connection'' is a more straightforward 80s action flick with BlackAndWhiteMorality and Chuck Norris playing an OneManArmy who beats up people from the very first scene that he appears in.
10	* AdvertisedExtra: Inverted. Based on the first few scenes, the viewer might believe that [[spoiler: Chuck Norris would be this, while the real protagonist of the movie would be the younger Bobby Chavez, played by Paul Perri. However, Chavez is killed less than halfway through the movie, after which Norris’s character becomes a badass OneManArmy, even more so than in the first film.]]
11	* BatheHerAndBringHerToMe: After Cota murders Begonia Plaza's husband, he tells Miguel "take her to my bedroom, but first give her a beautiful bath".
12	* BigBad: Cota.
13	* ColonelBadass: Scott is now a Colonel himself, with predictable badassery.
14	* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: Cota is this to the first film's BigBad Abdul Rafai. While Abdul was a ruthless and belligerent anti-Semitic terrorist, he was not without being an AffablyEvil NobleDemon with some EvenEvilHasStandards PetTheDog moments and even releasing the women and children he had taken hostage once the plane he hijacked landed (as well as showing some {{Noble Bigot}}ry despite his anti-Semitism and sincere VillainRespect towards a German stewardess hostage upon releasing her), while his actions are driven by a cause that he believes benefits him as a freedom fighter for his Lebanese brothers. Cota however, is a SissyVillain drug lord who makes a profit without any scruples, always reneges his promises, WouldHurtAChild, having committed rape and takes sheer sadism in whatever KickTheDog act he does. Also, while Abdul just wordlessly tries to fight [=McCoy=] at the end even if its one-sided before his death, Cota during his own final confrontation with [=McCoy=] just taunts him like the SmugSnake he is and suffers a DisneyVillainDeath that doubles as a ShutUpHannibal.
15	* DecoyProtagonist: [[spoiler:Bobby Chavez]] is killed less than halfway through the movie, although the early scenes build him up to be the protagonist on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge.
16	* DisneyVillainDeath: Cota plummets to his doom when the rope that he was hanging on snaps. It saved Scott the problem of cutting them himself.
17	* TheDragon: Carlos, Cota's right hand.
18	* ExactWords: The Delta Force are not meant to perform any armed incursions into Cota's territory, so every action they take (or so they tell the observer as it happens) is justified by Taylor with terms like "taking a stroll" (for disembarking soldiers from a helicopter). By the time [[StuffBlowingUp stuff starts to blow up]] Taylor [[BigShutUp stops caring]], though.
19	* GunshipRescue:
20	** Just as Scott is about to die in the gas chamber, General Taylor's armed chopper arrives on Cota's place and starts demolishing it, which helps him escape his predicament.
21	** General Taylor saves Scott a second time when Gen. Olmedo's chopper has the limo and all the people in his sights. Olmedo [[ThwartedCoupDeGrace wasn't expecting]] a Delta Force helicopter to [[ConvenientlyTimedAttackFromBehind be there to fire a rocket and blow him out of the sky]].
22	* ItsAlwaysMardiGrasInNewOrleans: The film opens in Rio de Janeiro, which is celebrating carnival.
23	* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: TheDragon is spin-kicked by Scott right into a statue's spear.
24	* ImperialStormtrooperMarksmanshipAcademy: Most of the movie. The mooks are even worse shots than in the first film.
25	* KnightOfCerebus: Cota, he's darker and more monstrous than the first film's villain.
26	* MacheteMayhem: Cota's weapon during the last fight.
27	* NeverBringAKnifeToAFistFight: Happens during the fight between Scott and Cota's right-hand man.
28	* RevengeBeforeReason: Bobby (for trying to go OneManArmy on a heavily guarded Cota) and Quiquina (for trying to stab a no-longer-subdued Cota). But to be fair, they've both crossed the DespairEventHorizon, thus losing their reason.
29	* SissyVillain: Cota usually acts in some kind of effeminate way.
30	* SpiesInAVan: A van full of DEA agents is shot up by Cota's men in the opening.
31	* ShutUpHannibal: The very last scene of the movie, as a KarmicDeath. Cota is [[SmugSnake smugly]] telling Scott about how his drug money will get him out of prison and how he promises to increase production… and then the rope snaps. Scott's BondOneLiner: "Let's see your money get your out of that".
32	* WhyDontYouJustShootHim: Cota and his men capture [=McCoy=] inside his compound, but instead of just executing him on the spot, they tie him up and lock him in a room, intending to kill him with poison gas. But by the time the poison gas starts seeping into the room, the compound is attacked by the rest of the Delta Force, enabling [=McCoy=] to escape.
