Review: about 3/4th the fun of its spry 2001 predecessor -- but it 's a rushed , slapdash , sequel-for-the-sake - of-a-sequel with less than half the plot and ingenuity 
Sentiment: negative

Review: its rather slow beginning

Review: lighting that emphasizes every line and sag

Review: a hoot in a bad-movie way 
Sentiment: negative


Review: for every cheesy scene , though , there is a really cool bit -- the movie 's conception of a future-world holographic librarian ( orlando jones ) who knows everything and answers all questions , is visually smart , cleverly written , and nicely realized .
