could have been better

Rating: 5/10 (4 July 2002)

The movie suffers from the malady of the sequel that is not meeting the expectation raised by the original. The movie fails at the most unexpected place, Will Smith fails to deliver. In the original, he portrays the enthusiasm, pace and energy of the novice; in the sequel he is supposed to be the veteran but he looks tired and again novice! he special effects are marvelous, Tommy lee Jones is hilarious by being serious. The tragedy of the movie is that the makers stumbled upon the gold mine but passed over; that gold mine is the talking dog who is funny, witty, audience bounds with it, could had been Eddie Murphy of Shrek, but, alas, but the movie makers just didn't gave him enough footage. Despite every thing the movie is enjoyable.
