Poor. Such a shame

Rating: 4/10 (6 October 2012)

Just got back from seeing this film...Such a shame! Some really good actors, excellent characters, top names in all the right places and such a good first film to set this one up...And then someone's stepped up and said "Let's milk this for all we can!"
Like I said, the first one set this up so well, the chance to go deeper into the main characters. A believable plot line continuation, the opportunity to turn this into a really great franchise and ten minutes in you can tell the writers have been given a different agenda compared to the one you think you're going to watch. Sometimes, on the rare occasion, that can be an excellent. You love the new direction, the twists you could never have seen coming, the depth of the characters, their background, the world they're living in, a leading film in it's own right, something to make you want to watch the other one right away...Unfortunately this isn't one of those types. If you watch this one first you won't want to see the other one. And that is such a shame.
The first film is brilliant. This one is purely cashing in on that. A film like this should never be a 12 rating, that was done purely to increase the audience numbers and therefore the box office take...
And they had the cheek to show an advertisement saying that film piracy is killing the industry. This looks like suicide or at the very least death by misadventure...
