Cool As Ice 2

Johnny Van Owen is a traveling rapper who drifts from city to city, bringing his crew and a club background singer along as they light up stages with high-energy performances, including a rowdy rendition of Cool as Ice (Everybody Get Loose) that sets the tone wherever they roll in. As the group finds themselves passing through a quiet, small town, Johnny’s eyes lock onto Kathy Winslow, a bright, idealistic honor student, sparking a dangerous attraction that will pull him deeper into a world of suspicion and risk.

The crew’s stay in town is interrupted when a motorcycle breaks down and needs repair, pinning them to a single location longer than planned. While Johnny seizes the chance to get close to Kathy, she already has a steady boyfriend named Nick, who doesn’t take kindly to Johnny’s approach. Undeterred, Johnny nudges Kathy toward leaving Nick, planting the seed of a choice that could unravel her carefully ordered life.

Later, Johnny and his crew crash a local club where Kathy and her friends are hanging out. They sense the mood is flat, so they hijack the moment by performing a surprise song, People’s Choice, unplugging the other band’s instruments and taking control of the stage. The bold move electrifies the crowd and, in a sweeping gesture, Johnny wins over Kathy, delivering a moment that humiliates Nick and redefines the town’s social map for the night.

After an offer to forgive Kathy and take her home, Johnny is met with caution and resistance. Kathy walks away, and soon afterward, two mysterious men in a car begin a troubling tail on her. Johnny intervenes, rescuing her from a stalker’s shadowy watch, and in a tense club parking lot confrontation, Nick and his friends lash out, smashing motorcycles belonging to Johnny’s crew. The clash escalates into a brutal scuffle where Johnny’s group fights back, leaving Nick battered and in the hospital with a broken nose.

Kathy’s father, Gordon, grows suspicious of Johnny and tries to shield his daughter by urging them to keep their distance from the unknown outsider. The next day, Kathy secretly rides with Johnny again, ignoring her father’s warnings as they roam the town—involving a ride through a rough construction site—before returning to an uneasy, tense home. Gordon confronts Johnny with a cold warning to stay away, a confrontation that exposes more secrets than either expected.

Under pressure from his wife Grace, Gordon reveals a painful part of his past: he used to be a police officer who, along with Kathy’s mother, lived on the run from two corrupt cops. They escaped using forged documents, a truth that explains why Gordon has guarded his history so tightly. Kathy challenges him for lying to protect her, though she still resents the idea of losing someone she’s growing to care about to a dangerous, murky world.

The next day, Johnny offers to give Kathy’s younger brother, Tommy, a ride on his bike. The trio shares a carefree cruise around town, but the outing takes a dark turn when they return home and Tommy vanishes. The group learns that Tommy’s kidnapping is tied to the crooked cops who had been hunting Gordon and relying on a tainted trail. A note left for the Winslows is actually a trap, and Gordon accuses Johnny of complicity, much to Kathy’s distress.

When Kathy asks to hear the kidnapping message, Johnny listens for a long moment and realizes the recorded message came from a construction site rather than the shop where they left town. A tense showdown erupts as the gang closes in on the criminals; a pivotal rescue unfolds at the construction site where Tommy’s fate hangs in the balance. The police arrive moments late, but the ragtag crew manages to save Tommy and restore some sense of order. Gordon apologizes to Johnny for his suspicion, and despite the rough road they’ve traveled, Kathy’s loyalty to Johnny remains fierce.

The journey doesn’t end with forgiveness alone. A quiet decision hangs in the air as Johnny contemplates moving on, yet Kathy’s stubborn resolve to be with him grows louder. In a final, dramatic moment, the couple heads back to the big city together, the tension behind them as Kathy chooses a future by his side. A guitar-laced rhythm leads into the climactic performance as Johnny delivers a show-stopping set with his crew, singing Get Wit It to a roaring crowd.

The night closes with a visual of triumph and possibility: Johnny on stage, the lights washing over the club as the final chords echo through the space. Kathy slips into the spotlight, joining him after the show to share a quiet, unspoken bond that promises new beginnings. The ending lingers on the idea that love, music, and a relentless pursuit of freedom can intertwine, guiding two unlikely partners toward a future that lives beyond the street-level chaos they survived.
