A Two Hour Home Movie

Rating: Null/10 (11 December 2004)

Back in 2001, 11 was light-weight, silly fun - worth a few hours enjoyment.
Unfortunately, as most sequels do, 12 is a letdown, a wandering, aimless mess.
The overall plot itself is fine, but the actors all seem just so pleased and excited to be themselves and how wonderful they are. Lots of in-jokes (fine), but the mugging and preening for the camera is non-stop. The actors attitude is best summed up in the "Monday" section at the end of the show ... I thought I had just watched a two hour home movie of the stars just being their glamorous, exciting selves.
Glossy and slick and empty as cotton candy, that's about it. Worth a (future) rental, but certainly not the 8+ bucks theaters charge these days.
