How sad is this?
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
