The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
