Entertaining but nothing special.

Rating: 4/10 (26 May 2007)

It was more special effects, more plot, more characters, more time, more everything, but for the most part it didn't work out. They stuffed in more plot but then ironically enough spent way too much time on pointless bits. The end result was that even though the movie was way too long the plot still seemed rushed. They try to reuse many jokes here, and only a few of them actually made me laugh. If it weren't for the breathtaking special effects, the only thing this movie would have accomplished would have been to tire me out. I think the idea might have stayed fresh if they stuck to the basics a bit more and not tried to overcomplicate the story. Also, the ending, which is a little unconventional (usually I like unconventional), didn't work for me. If there is a fourth you won't see me there.
