Man this was really good, I enjoyed it a lot. I was kinda worried after seeing some of the initial reviews but this is a easy 8/10 for me and might just be my favourite movie from the franchise (not sure if I’m ready to put it above the 1st one just yet).
The acting was solid and the story was tight and well paced. It probably could have used another 15-20 min or so because some parts felt a bit rushed (particularly the 3rd act), but that very end shot of the painting was quite sweet and would serve as a solid end to the franchise if that’s what they decide (I would totally watch another addition to the franchise though).
Nice directorial debut for Patrick Wilson.
