It's basically just a retread of the first movie where they somehow all forgot the lesson of being best together as a family. The writers simply switched which parent goes it alone hoping the Mr mom routine and strong career focused mother character make up for an uninspired plot with a villain motive that isn't nearly as poignant as they think it is and a reveal that couldn't be telegraphed harder. However it's technically solid and individual scenes work well enough on their own.
