For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
We may feel that contemporary films have too much rapid cutting, but in this film the 33 year old Griffith introduces rapid cutting. I'm not a fan of rapid cutting to be quite frank, but at least I know who to attach the blame to. I don't believe that audiences are that dense that they need rapid cutting to maintain concentration.
