An average movie with a duration above average

Rating: 6/10 (18 June 2018)

Let's start by saying that I really loved the first movie.
It was funny, clever, with great character development, personal stories and last but not least it was technically impeccable for 2004.
So... my expectations for the sequel were quite high but not unjustified... I think.
The studio had nearly 14 years (!) to develop something that could have been really outstanding. Everything was at reach of hand:
Violet love story, Dash school adventures, Jack's power development, marriage crysis, etc. etc.
So what we got:
REUSED IDEA - Helen and Bob just switched their involvement
NO CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT - all the characters had nothing to say
SAME VILLAIN REASONS - delusion
LESS INNOVATION - boring inventions
A FEW FUNNY MOMENTS
A 2 HOURS LONG MOVIE, that could be easily shrinked to 80 minutes.
NO REAL REASON to SEE it in 3D
Sorry to say that but it was quite boring and flat.
