Rating: 8/10 (18 February 2018)

One of its biggest assets is its refreshing separation from the wider cinematic universe, free from the shackles of forced intertextuality, which allows it to be a self-contained sequel experience that succeeds in maintaining the spirit of the first even if it never reaches its quality. The final act is a little too big and over-the-top, some of the action focuses too much on CGI and the feature lacks a driving antagonistic force for much of the run-time but it is still a very fun and entertaining adventure that always keeps a keen focus on its characters. It's surprisingly emotionally resonant, too. A great follow-up. 8/10
