Big disappointment (may contain spoilers)

Rating: 1/10 (3 June 2014)

I am so disappointed in this movie. I loved the first movie. This movie has maybe 5 minutes of plot spread out over 2+ hours. This movie should really have been a 5 minute epilogue on the first movie or, better yet, a 5 minute intro sequence on the next one - the impact would have been much greater.
The direction and production were flat and uninspired, the story non- existent (and if this matches the book as described in another review then I have no interest in the book either.) At the closing logo my first reaction was "Are you s****ing me, that's it?"
I am sad to see such a failure to reach potential, especially with an overall story line I find meaningful and important.
