Not very good

Rating: 5/10 (11 July 2006)

This film was overly long, tiring, and ugly. No plot lines were resolved in any way, and though this bodes well for a third film it leaves the second at a loss. There are too many characters and too little interaction between them. The film is choppy and poorly paced. Action sequences seem cut at random.
I wouldn't care too much, but this film had the biggest opening weekend of all time. Sure blockbusters don't have to be good cinema, but this film was bad.
I understand that they've already made a third. More power to them, but I hope that the hype dies down. The critical view of this film is fairly poor. The word of mouth should be the same. It seems like a film that makes 130 million in its opening weekend should be accountable for at least a minimum of quality.
