How the heck did this crap get 7.4 stars????

Rating: 1/10 (17 August 2006)

A lot of people must be smoking crack! The first movie was delightfully funny, packed with action, and the story-line really moved. The sequel was its polar opposite.
The jungle sequence was entertaining, but the rest of the story, or shall I say three ill-woven stories, oozed along at a pace that any able-bodied snail could beat.
My family and I endured 90 minutes of mindless drivel. The characters we grew to love in the original movie were reduced here to self-important mumbling stick figures, who lost our empathy and -- towards the end -- our interest.
We finally relented and followed the huge cross-section of disgruntled patrons who made their way to the exits.
In other words, save your money...and your 2 1/2 hours!
