I actually thought that it was possibly the best follow up to a film I have ever seen, not as fresh as the first and not quite as good because of that, some parts were maybe unnesecary, but the acting was absolutely fantastic, particularly Robert Carlisle, but when isn't he.
The way it was shot and the fact there was still so much chemistry between the actors blew me away, again the story wasn't quite as good but absolutely hilarious and really sad at points, fantastic in my opinion.
