Pretty lame. Seems like the sequel was for the sake of making a sequel, no message or creative intent.
Instead of actually building and laying out the plot and story, they had NPH’s character verbally explain it to the audience in a few minutes. And not much of a plot either.
Acting wasn’t that great. Could barely hear or understand the Asian female supporting role. Really annoying.
The original had xlnt atmosphere and mood. Nothing much here. Just cheesy CGI.
My kids liked the fight scenes, also explained a few things I was wondering about in the original, that’s pretty much about it.
