It's good...but...

Rating: Null/10 (25 February 1999)

...it's not as good as the first. I read the first draft script on the internet when all the hype was up about this film, and was surprised at how good it was. I waited, and waited, and when I went to see it, things changed. Many a scene was deleted, newer scenes where put in over the cut stuff, and the ending was totally different than the draft I read. The climatic showdown and the revelation of the killer was a huge dissapointment. Although the acting was super in this film by every single person, the film just lacked depth and creativity. The first was good...not the best by far, but good. This is just borderline good, kinda dull. Maybe the ending was the way it was because they wanted it that way...you know, sequels suck? Maybe that was a sly nod...who knows.
