Disappointing sequel

Rating: 3/10 (21 September 2013)

Not much to say about this movie except that it's nowhere near as good as the first one. The action is rather lame and by the numbers and the story is way too predictable and not enough to hold your interest. I somehow found the patience to sit through and watch it all, it hoping it would get better - sadly it didn't. What a waste of an evening. It was however a good advert for Mercedes cars though. There was the usual chase sequence in a yellow Mercedes taxi which crashed into multiple cars both front and back, scraped past buildings in narrow back streets which should have badly damaged the car on both sides and you know what? - it remained in pristine, shiny condition up to the end of the sequence when it finally crashed into a security guard wooden hut! Then it finally looked damaged! I want that car! All three of the main actors are capable of better - and frankly I much expected better from Luc Besson. Advice - watch something else instead.
