Too Overdone

Rating: 4/10 (10 November 2000)

I wish I could say I really liked this movie but I didn't. To me it seemed that ever aspect of this film was overdone for more of a dramatic effect from the simple eye staring when Ethan and Nyah first saw each other to the outrageous bike chase at the end.
Despite the fact that this was initially a t.v. series, I believe the pace of the films were set with the first movie. This movie totally went beyond realism and went into total stupidity. Am I to believe that at the end of the film when the bike chase was going on that and they were heading at each other at what seemed 90 miles per hour each / BUT WAIT, lets lessen that. Lets say they were going 40 miles per hour each. The impact that they hit each other when they jumped off the bikes would still be 80 miles per hour. LET'S GO EVEN FURTHER. Had they survived that hellish impact, they would not be able to jump back up and start pounding on each other in a full fight. Like I said it was too unrealistic.
The music during the action scenes were also too much. Just shoot the damn gun and scream. I don't need the music to make it sound dramatic.

That is why I liked the first one so much more. It was believable, it had it's villains, as well as good guys. Then there were the people in between. It went to the edge of realism, but still kept you in the real world.

Save your money for a good film.
