This was a poor sequel, following on from an all time great original. There was little coherence or emotional resonance to the storyline, the actung was generally weak and almost comical in some cases (e.g. two emporers) Many of the punchlines felt tremedously generoc, like they had been written by Chat GPT. While references back to lines from the original felt hollow. A strange film which is both aesthetically pleasing, at times, and very underwhelming
