This movie has big balls to pull this much fun of carnage and destruction. Don't get me wrong, I have seen the first movie a long time ago, but have since forgotten almost all of it - and that helps a lot.
If you watch this film as a stand alone, and not as sequel/prequel, it's good, really good. The setup is fast, the characters are strong and constant; you can pick up what's going on at any point in the movie. And its fun.
There is actual feel of destruction and crazy, but at the same time you can't take it seriously.
While it was good here and there, the ending events are when it really shines. So if you zone out from time to time, at least stick around to see how it ends, you wont be disappointed.
