A let-down.

Rating: 4/10 (6 July 2006)

I'll be honest: I expected more. Basically felt like a wasted three hours. I wanted it to be over well before it was.
While I realize little I can say will effect box office sales of this movie, I was rather disappointed that one of my favorite movies (the original) could fall prey to "Sequel Syndrome." The movie is repetitive, forced, and recycled. Every joke you laughed at the first time around is back and trying to wring one last chuckle.
Nice cinematography, but the script was weak. I believe this does not bode well for the third one, which is due next year. I just hope it doesn't choke the way the Matrix trilogy did.
